answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/05/2024 answer text <p>Supporting households and the most vulnerable by tackling cost of living pressures remains a core priority for this government. That is why the UK Government has introduced a £108 billion package of support over 2022-25, worth an average £3,800 per household, to mitigate against these pressures. We are also making good progress against the Prime Minister’s three economic priorities of halving inflation, getting the economy growing and reducing the national debt. Inflation is now at 3.2 percent - less than half its recent peak, and is expected to fall further to its 2 percent target one year earlier than expected.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Dumfries and Galloway answering member printed Mr Alister Jack question first answered 01/05/2024 13:29:39 answering member 4619 label Biography information for Mr Alister Jack
