Proceeding contribution from Lord O'Neill of Clackmannan (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 31 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Energy Bill [HL].
Energy Bill [HL]
Could the Minister give us any evidence that this has taken place with any degree of consistency? We normally find that upward changes in prices as a consequence of market conditions are introduced almost immediately but that, when there are downward movements as a result of the same market circumstances, it takes rather longer. It seems that the customer in the middle is left having to pay more for longer and getting the benefits of lower prices for a shorter period.
