I agree with the independence of the CCPC review and I wish it well in the investigation. The question, however, is what the Minister is going to do, first, to ensure dynamic pricing is defined in law, which it is not, and second, what he is going to do, not about the specific events at the end of August but about the general trend where the more demand there is, the more people are ripped off and more money is squeezed out of consumers? It is clearly unfair and misleading, it is unfair practice, and it is false advertising. There is a whole range of criteria which what happened before and during August falls under. What is the Minister going to do to ensure all prices are clear to the consumer in order that they know exactly the price of their purchase and we are not feeding the image of unfair pricing or bad practice?
