Is that for industry, the consumer or the taxpayer? Do you think the Government are very clear an…” | 65 |
| 2 Jul 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 734) “Thank you for coming and getting straight into the heart of things. The private rented sector has been raised as a concern in this Committee and elsewhere, and private renters absolutely do not have control over it. Some sort of scheme that actually addresses people in the private sector is probably very important. Let…” | 123 |

| 25 Jun 2025 | Energy Security and Net Zero Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 736) “One of the last questions on the whole new world of energy is: how will customer demand increase the competition?
