The Government published impact assessments when consulting and publishing the Government’s response.</p><p>To be eligible for a rebate under Core Group 2, a household must be in receipt of a qualifying means-tested benefit and living in a property which we have estimated to have relatively high heating costs. Broadly speaking, larger properties, as well as older and more detached properties, have higher heating costs and therefore are more likely to be eligible for a rebate.</p><p>These changes do not apply in Scotland, where customers apply for a Broader Group rebate through their energy suppliers, who can set their own eligibility criteria.</p> answering member constituency Derby North answering member printed Amanda Solloway question first answered 24/04/2023 15:28:26 answering member 4372 label Biography information for Amanda Solloway
