Crisis and Resilience Fund
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if he will publish a full timeline for the roll out of the Crisis Resilience Fund and when Local Authorities can start making payments to households.
Answered by Dame Diana Johnson
The Crisis and Resilience Fund will come into effect on 1 April in England. In most cases, local authorities will start making payments to households from 1 April. However, they can also provide payments now to specifically support households facing rising oil-heating costs.
