Proceeding contribution from Caroline Flint (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 April 2014. It occurred during Opposition day on Energy Price Freeze.
Energy Price Freeze
It was a recommendation from Ofgem that we want to abolish. It was wrong and it did not work, and I will get to that point. Unlike the Secretary of State, I came to this job to look seriously at what has gone wrong in the energy market, and since privatisation over 30 years ago, mistakes have been made. Mistakes are being made now that could be put right if the Secretary of State had the gumption to do it, but he does not.
