answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/04/2024 answer text <p>Suppliers have so far carried out 150,000 assessments to make sure those impacted get the compensation they deserve. Of these cases, around 2,500 customers were identified as needing compensation - and around 60% of those have received it, with payments planned for another 1,000 customers. We expect suppliers to work day and night to issue these remaining payments - there is no excuse for delay. While this is a matter for Ofgem, I have spoken to Ofgem about their responsibilities and the need for suppliers to speed up payments. I will continue to monitor this very closely.</p> answering member constituency Derby North answering member printed Amanda Solloway grouped question UIN 23587 23588 question first answered 29/04/2024 10:53:59 answering member 4372 label Biography information for Amanda Solloway
