ENERGYWATCH'S STOP NOW CAMPAIGN
EDM number 65 in 2002-03, proposed by Bill Tynan on 13/11/2002.
That this House condemns energy companies that transfer consumers against their will or without their knowledge; recognises the distress and financial detriment this can cause to consumers; applauds Energywatch's Stop Now! Campaign to restore consumer confidence and order to the energy transfer and marketing process; welcomes Ofgem's decision to fine London Electricity ú2 million for persistently mis-selling; notes that the Energy Minister's deadline of six months to eradicate this problem is fast approaching; calls for the introduction of a system which protects consumers from being transferred without their prior knowledge and explicit consent; and recommends that individuals affected by any type of erroneous transfer or sales malpractice should receive automatic minimum compensation payments from the offending energy supplier.
This motion has been signed by a total of 152 MPs.
