<p>Network regulation, including 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>
