Nicola Sturgeon has renewed calls for the UK government to freeze energy bills as she declared the cost of living crisis this winter a “public emergency”.
The First Minister said there had been consensus at the Bute House summit on Wednesday with energy suppliers and consumer organisations in Scotland.
Sturgeon said the UK Government must address the impact of power bills that could double in October to over £3,000 and to over £5,000 a household by New Year.
