Mark Lazarowicz (Edinburgh, North and Leith) (Lab/Co-op):
Reports today have once again highlighted the recent increases both in household fuel bills and the profits of energy companies. Will my right hon. Friend ask the Department of Trade and Industry to look at the case being made by consumer organisations for a better use of social tariffs, which bring down fuel bills for vulnerable consumers while at the same time meaning that those who consume more energy and the power companies pay more?
Tony Blair (The Prime Minister)
I am sure that those at the DTI will have heard my hon. Friend’s words and will no doubt look into them. |
