This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition Cap Energy Bills
More details
With three energy companies announcing 10% rises and another three likely to follow suit, the Government's advice to switch supplier is weak and no longer credible. This is an essential public utility,not a luxury.
Wages, state pensions and the CPI are all rising at an annual rate of between 2.5 and 2.7%, one quarter of that demanded by the energy industry.
Action required: effective from 1st January 2014, all energy companies must be required to provide supplies linked to the Consumer Price Index (2.7%).
Austerity is for all, not a chosen few.
