Proceeding contribution from James Morris (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 19 October 2011. It occurred during Opposition day on Energy Prices.


Energy Prices

My hon. Friend makes an important point about the collection of benefits available. There is an issue about pensioners and other groups not knowing which benefits are available. The Government are taking some short-term measures, but it is important to note that they need to take long-term measures because this problem will not be solved by a single silver bullet. The Government are going in the right direction. This debate has provided a useful airing of views across the House about how we tackle this important problem.
