PQ 422
469 Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources if his attention has been drawn to the fact that gas consumers who wish to switch to a prepay payment method for their gas bill have to pay nearly €400 to do this; his views on this significant charge given that many consumers switching to the prepay method are under serious financial pressure and given the long tradition of prepaying for gas by Bord Gáis consumers before many other organisations had introduced a prepay method; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
