Proceeding contribution from Chris Huhne (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 July 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Electricity Market Reform.


Electricity Market Reform

The hon. Lady is referring, I think, to the potential impact of the carbon price floor, which will of course begin in 2013 and then rise slowly. There will be no impact of the type that she is suggesting until its introduction. It must be considered alongside all the measures we are introducing to save energy and protect those in fuel poverty.
