Electricity and Natural Gas: Taxation
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what recent assessment he has made of the potential merits of rebalancing policy levies between electric and gas bills.
Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh
Over this Parliament the Government will be working relentlessly to translate the much cheaper wholesale costs of clean power into lower bills for consumers. This will be core to every decision we make.
This is a complex issue and decisions will be made which must be informed by robust research and analysis. We will ensure we keep fairness and affordability at the forefront of our minds throughout this process.
