future retail regulation
Dydd Llun, 18 Ebrill 2016
Citizens Advice and Citizens Advice Scotland (Citizens Advice Service) are pleased that Ofgem recognises a continued role for prescription as, in some cases, it may be the best way of delivering the right consumer outcomes. Ofgem identifies three criteria for situations where prescription would still be required: specific minimum standards below which suppliers’ outputs should not fall, prohibition of a specific detrimental practice and where standardisation across the market is essential. We agree with each of these criteria.
