Mr. Noel Regan:

The legislation comes at it by addressing specific issues in switching such as timing and switching fees. While there is no reference to the point the Deputy raises, it is certainly something we can take away and consider. The timing provision is in respect of the time to switch when someone has made the decision and confirmed it. There is no timing restriction on the point at which a person is trying to access their current provider. That is something we can take away and seek to raise through the legislation. This legislation will apply to gas specifically. There is an opportunity here in the switching articles, and there are several of them, to get it right.
