Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:
To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to provide compensation to households who are unable to switch from a Radio Teleswitch Service meter to a smart meter and consequently lose access to power.
As RTS meters typically control heating and hot water on a separate circuit to a premises' electricity, consumers should not be at risk of losing their electricity supply.
There are now technical solutions available to allow the replacement of all RTS meters.
