Citizens Advice responds to CMA energy investigation

24 Mehefin 2016

Citizens Advice has responded to the final report from the Competition and Markets Authority’s (CMA) two-year investigation into the UK energy market.

Gillian Guy, Chief Executive of Citizens Advice, said:

“This investigation was ​intended to make the energy market work for consumers.

“It’s good the CMA will introduce a safeguard tariff for prepayment meter customers - this is a helpful change and will cut bills for some of the poorest people. We remain concerned about those on expensive standard tariffs.

“It’s important both Ofgem and the government keep a careful eye on the market, reviewing the results of this investigation and keep tougher reforms on the table if the intended improvements don’t materialise.”
