<p>Network regulation, including the sector specific methodology for gas and electricity
network price controls, is a matter for Ofgem as the independent energy regulator
and, by law, must be set independently of Government. Government expects network companies
and regulators to act in the best interests of consumers including in relation to
Government’s net zero and clean growth ambitions, and taking into account the industrial
strategy. As an independent arm’s length body, whose objectives are set out in statute,
Ofgem is directly accountable to Parliament.</p>
