Freeze household gas and electricity bills
Should the government intervene to freeze gas and electricity bills?

Labour "We will make life more affordable for millions of people. We’ll freeze gas and electricity bills until 2017 and reform the broken energy market to stop the cost of energy bills soaring." Source: Labour Manifesto
Plaid Cymru "Plaid Cymru has called on the Welsh government to publish an action plan to alleviate high utility bills." Source: BBC Democracy Live. http://www.bbc.co.uk/democracylive/wales-30060899
SNP "... perhaps we can all, therefore, unite in calling on the UK Government to do more around fuel prices. I know Jackie Baillie has previously called for a freeze in energy prices. Will she join with me today in calling on the UK Government to go further than that and restructure energy bills so that we can take the burden of energy efficiency off energy bills and actually deliver a cut?" - Nicola Sturgeon, 11 December 2014.
