Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what steps his Department is taking to ensure the efficacy of the energy regulator.
The Department maintains a strong working relationship with Ofgem, working closely across a wide range of policy areas. I regularly meet with Ofgem to discuss strategic priorities, while the Department engages directly with the UK Regulators Network, where Ofgem and regulators across sectors share best practice.
