Debate between Baroness Fookes and Baroness Bloomfield of Hinton Waldrist

Wednesday 20th July 2022 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Bloomfield of Hinton Waldrist (Con)]

As I have said, service charges are governed by law and must be reasonable. I do not think I can go much further in that regard.

[Baroness Fookes (Con)]

My Lords, can my noble friend help with a particularly invidious situation? A leaseholder may feel that he is being charged extortionate fees for gas and electricity by his supplier, but the supplier also happens to be his landlord.

I do not believe I can go further than what I have already said in our action against Fujitsu. Obviously there will be repercussions for it, but I do not want to prejudge what the inquiry will set out. All I can say is that, while it is at liberty to bid for future government contracts, I am sure the history of this sorry saga will be taken into account in that process.

[The Deputy Speaker (Baroness Fookes) (Con)]

I will pause a moment before calling the next business.
