Energy Bills

Proceeding contribution from Toby Perkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 December 2013. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Energy Bills.

More than 5,000 people in Chesterfield signed a petition urging the Government to freeze energy prices. They will be mystified as to why the Minister thinks it is a good idea to put money saved from energy bills on to the tax bill instead. In answer to the question asked by my hon. Friend the Member for Halton (Derek Twigg), the Secretary of State said that he had discussed profits and prices with the big six energy companies. Did he tell them that he thought that profits and prices were too high?
