“The proposed debt support scheme, alongside the Warm Home Discount, is an important first step to cut the costs of servicing bad debt, which is currently contributing to higher bills for all billpayers”, DESNZ added.
“We welcome the Government’s support for these plans, and their plans to expand the Warm Home Discount, which will also offer financial help to nearly three million more households that need it most.”.
“Expanding the Warm Home Discount can help protect millions of families from rising energy bills, offering support to consumers across the country.
Nearly three million more households would be eligible for discounts on their energy bills next winter under new proposals.
