The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, when the energy bill levy framework will be introduced.

Answered by Lucy Rigby

As announced at Autumn Budget 2025, the government is committed to introducing a new framework to subject levies to enhanced scrutiny and ensure they are affordable, value for money and do not impose unnecessary costs on households and businesses. The government will provide an update on the framework alongside the next fiscal event.
