Lib Dem to introduce bill to end Fuel Poverty

Hat tip to Lib Dem Voice for the news that David Heath, Lib Dem Brian Blessed look alike and Somerton and Frome MP is to introduce a bill aimed at ending fuel poverty.

This measure, if it becomes law, would introduce two measures which would make a huge difference to those struggling to pay their fuel bills: an energy efficiency programme and statutory social tariffs to reduce the impact of high energy costs for the most vulnerable.

A worthy measure, worthy of parliamentary support. Let's hope the Government backs it so it has a chance of becoming law.
