The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether users of LPG can access the £53 million emergency support package for vulnerable households.

Answered by Dame Diana Johnson

The additional £53 million announced by the government to be targeted at heating oil includes £3.8 million support for Wales, which is being provided to the Welsh Government. It is for the Welsh Government to determine how this funding is allocated and delivered, in line with its devolved responsibilities and existing delivery mechanisms, including any support available for households reliant on LPG.
