LABOUR has put forward amendments to the Energy Bill that it says would cut bills across the country by £93 billion.

The party put forward amendments to the draft legislation, as MPs gathered in Parliament to discuss it, which would also make Britain energy secure and end the Tory ban on onshore wind.

Opening up the report stage of the Bill in the commons, Energy Minister Andrew Bowie said that the law will provide “cleaner, cheaper and more secure energy.”
