Proceeding contribution from Bob Stewart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 January 2012. It occurred during Opposition day on Energy Prices.


Energy Prices

If the Government are writing to so many vulnerable people, can we not make it as simple as possible? When we start talking about the elderly shopping around, why can we not just say, ““Here are two or three very good deals that will work for you””, and then use that to ensure that energy providers bring their prices down? We should say to energy providers, ““We are going to recommend this, so you had better bring your prices down.”” That is what we need. We want to keep it as simple as possible.
