The Government consulted on options for how additional fees and so-called drip pricing should be regulated.

Following assessment of the consultation responses, the Government announced in the Autumn Statement that it will be introducing new measures to tackle drip pricing. Further details will be provided in the Government's formal response to the consultation.
