Proceeding contribution from Melanie Onn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 January 2026. It occurred during Backbench debate and Select Committee statement on Energy Costs.
Energy Costs
It is welcome that the Government agreed with the Select Committee that we should be more ambitious about smart meter roll-out, so that household customers can get the best tariffs for them. We also heard evidence that there was a lack of consumer confidence in smart meters. Does the Chair of the Select Committee think that there is more that the Government could do to rekindle that confidence for the benefit of consumers?
