Energy Bill

Proceeding contribution from John Grogan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 December 2009. It occurred during Debate on bills on Energy Bill.
As regards the consumer, whom the Secretary of State mentions, is there not now a compelling case for him to use his powers to refer the big six energy companies and the relationship between consumer and wholesale prices to the Competition Commission—that is supported by Consumer Focus, the statutory consumer body—given that the commission alone has the powers to break down barriers to entry to the market and that the enhanced powers for Ofgem in the Bill will not come fully into effect until 2011?
