PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Energy: Prices (1 July 2026)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the conflict in the Middle East on domestic energy bills.

Asked by:
Sally Jameson (Labour)

Answer

The conflict in the Middle East demonstrates once again the need to get off the fossil fuel rollercoaster and drive for homegrown clean power that we control.

As we drive forward with this agenda, we have also taken immediate action, including by removing £150 of costs off energy bills and expanding the Warm Homes Discount scheme to 6 million families, and we will keep doing all we can to help families in advance of winter.
