Simeon Brown: Energy Minister on the Government's plan to boost energy supply and reduce power bills

The Energy Minister says the Government will make sure the energy sector is more competitive - and better for customers. Cabinet has agreed to import more Liquefied Natural Gas and fast-track reforms to make it easier to build renewable energy farms in light of sky-high power prices pressuring big industry users. Minister Simeon Brown says more competition and regular reporting will stop companies from price-gouging.  "I share Shane Jones's concerns - I share his concerns around excessive prices and the impact that they're having."
