Asked by:
David Mundell (Conservative)

Answer

Ofgem runs the Supplier of Last Resort (SoLR) process that ensures customers do not experience any disruption to their supply when a company leaves the market. Ofgem will work with suppliers to appoint the SoLR that provides the best deal for customers. Customers will continue to be protected from unfair prices by the price cap.
