<p>We have made it clear to the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) industry that it is
vital that the benefits of falling oil prices are passed on quickly to consumers.</p><p>We
have an open market for LPG in the UK as we believe this provides the best long term
guarantee of competitive prices. The LPG market is subject to UK competition and consumer
protection law under the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA).</p><p>The CMA continues
to keep under review the Domestic Bulk Liquefied Petroleum Gas Market Investigation
Order 2008 and the Domestic Bulk Liquefied Petroleum Gas Market Investigation (Metered
Estates) Order 2009, intended to help consumers to compare quotes and switch supplier.</p><p>Domestic
bulk LPG suppliers remain subject to the CC Orders and the Competition and Markets
Authority will continue to keep the effect of the CC Orders under review.</p>
