OFGEM AND PREPAYMENT METER PRICES
Early day motion 1263, tabled 1 April 2009 by Bob Spink (Independent). Signed by 44 members.
That this House welcomes Ofgem's proposals to ban unjustified price differences; notes that Ofgem's measures will prevent the very worst differentials of up to £500 but feels these new proposals do not go far enough as online direct debit prices will be far lower than prepayment meter prices; and calls on Ofgem to ensure that prepayment meter customers do not pay a penny more than quarterly billed customers.
Signatures by party: Labour 30, Liberal Democrat 10, Independent 2, Conservative 1, Scottish National Party 1.
