The Energy Consumers Australia Board met in Brisbane on July 10 which was again preceded by a stakeholder forum. The Board Stakeholder Forum provides an opportunity for the Board to meet Queensland advocates, industry and officials to discuss issues of concern to consumers.
38 representatives from the energy sector attended including consumers, advocates, small business, industry (wholesale and retail), regulators and government. The forum’s theme was ‘The link between housing and energy management and affordability’.
Presentations from the event have been made available for the benefit of stakeholders.
