Can Mr. Carroll tell me what choices people have in terms of fuel, for example? Individuals do not have a choice. The big choices are about how electricity is to be generated. Probably the only choice people can make is how they move around - whether to use public transport as opposed to a car. They can use less energy but they cannot choose the type of energy that comes into their home. There is a limited choice on that.
