Gas Market Fraud

Philip Hollobone Excerpts

Tuesday 13th November 2012 Commons Chamber

[Mr Davey]

It is my understanding that the investigations go across the whole of the country. If I am wrong about that, I will write to the right hon. Gentleman, but that is my understanding.

[Mr Philip Hollobone (Kettering) (Con)]

Domestic energy consumers may have an electricity bill, may have a gas bill and may have both, but those who have electricity bills may not realise that an increasing proportion of our electricity is generated from gas-fired power stations. This country is increasingly reliant on gas, so this potential scandal extends far further than most of our constituents might realise.
