Regulation Of Off-Mains Heating Fuels

EDM number 570 in 2008-09, proposed by Mark Oaten on 26/01/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Consumers, Energy and Regulation.

That this House notes with concern that off-mains heating fuels, particularly oil and liquid petroleum gas, remain unregulated; believes this leaves consumers, particularly in rural areas, with no alternative heating option to using companies outside of the regulatory system; further notes that the Business and Enterprise Committee also recommended regulation and does not agree with the Government's assertion that market forces will naturally regulate the sector; and strongly urges the Government and industry to discuss ways in which off-mains heating fuels can be brought under the relevant regulator's remit as quickly as possible.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs.
