Proceeding contribution from Andrew George (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 19 October 2011. It occurred during Opposition day on Energy Prices.


Energy Prices

I believe that the previous Government were well intentioned with regard to the Warm Front scheme, but when I visited my constituents who benefited from it—there is no question that they benefited—I found that most of them paid twice as much as they should have done. I do not know who pocketed the benefit of that system, but my constituents could have paid half the price to a local supplier. The scheme was certainly not fit for purpose.
