Those of you who signed it will probably already know, but the government replied to my petition about efficiency ratings. You can read the petition and its signatories too.
It's probably not worth dwelling on. The civil servants who drafted the reply clearly had an agenda which they wanted to tell me all about, and the first few paragraphs were about that. They picked up on my nu-Labr emphasis on consumer choice and market excellence, and affirmed that the A+ and A++ ratings were a stopgap measure and that broader legislation was in the pipeline. As successful as such communication channels are ever likely to be, I think.
