Barry Soper: ZB Senior Political Correspondent on politician's responses to the sky-high electricity prices and energy crisis

  • Resumen

  • Soaring energy prices have been a topic of conversation at the moment as multiple mills are at risk of shutting up shop.

    Regional Development Minister Shane Jones has issued a warning to generators, telling them to sort it out or else the Government will get involved.

    Nicola Willis and Simeon Brown have stated that they’re making inquiries into the situation, and Winston Peters has gone a step further and accused electricity generators of anti-competitive behaviour and accused them of profiteering on the backs of people who have to pay their power bills.

    Senior Political Correspondent Barry Soper told Heather du Plessis-Allan that this should end with Labour coming to the table and the supporting the government in lifting the ban they made on oil and gas exploration.
