Lodged by Rob Gibson Standard Motion 24 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament deplores the reported decision of the energy utility company, E.ON, to refuse the email address of an account holder who wished to log online with a .scot address; questions E.ON’s reason, that its online accounts system was unable to accept email addresses from the .scot domain; understands that E.ON expects a net income for 2015-16 of €1.4 billion but that it has said that there would be a significant cost and that "there is not enough consumer demand for it to be able to absorb the cost", and encourages large companies that have various strands of business in Scotland to make sure that their customers in Scotland are not discriminated against.
