Question
To ask the Scottish Government when it last met Ofgem, and what was discussed.
Answer
I met with Ofgem CEO Jonathan Brearley and Chair Mark McAllister on 8 February to discuss Ofgem’s work to review standing charges for consumers, protections for prepayment meter (PPM) customers and opportunities for data sharing to facilitate better targeting of support to those that need it the most.
My officials regularly engage with Ofgem to influence policymaking and advocate the interests of Scottish energy consumers.
