Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether he plans to take steps to (a) improve and (b) regularly assess Ofgem's effectiveness as a regulator.

The energy market is currently facing unprecedented challenges.

Ofgem recognises how its regulatory approach over the last 18 months has contributed to supplier failure and the related issues within the energy supply market. Ofgem is therefore taking steps to ensure that the supply market is more robust. This includes a package of reforms designed to bolster consumer protection and ensure energy suppliers are more resilient to market shocks.
