We are investing close to £1 billion a year to help consumers through a reformed supplier obligation and Warm Home Discount, and plan to reform both schemes to focus that funding better on those that need it most.<\/p>
<\/p>
Our ability to do that is strengthened significantly by the introduction of an improved definition of fuel poverty which captures those in genuine need who are facing the overlapping problem of a low household income and high energy costs.<\/p>
<\/p>
This low income high costs indicator has meant a change in the demographic of who is considered to be fuel poor in England - with homes with at least one child now accounting for nearly half of the fuel poor population.<\/p>
<\/p>
We will be consulting on our proposals to reform the supplier obligation and the Warm Home Discount later this year.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4117", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrea Leadsom"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "South Northamptonshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Andrea Leadsom"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2016-03-02", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2016-03-02T16:19:40.59Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "63"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Energy and Climate Change"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Energy and Climate Change"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2016-02-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Fuel Poverty: Children"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, what steps she is taking to reduce the number of children living in fuel poverty.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4037", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Tom Blenkinsop"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Tom Blenkinsop"} ], "uin" : "28723"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/455722", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Energy and Climate Change"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/455722/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
At the February European Council, the Government negotiated a new settlement, giving the United Kingdom a special status in a reformed European Union. The Government's position, as set out by the Prime Minister to the House on 22 February, is that the UK will be stronger, safer and better off remaining in a reformed EU.<\/p>

Data on the number of smart electricity and gas meters installed in Great Britain is set out in the Government\u2019s \u2018Smart Meters, Great Britain, Quarterly report to end September 2015\u2019, published on 22 December 2015:<\/p>
The roll-out is making good progress with more than 2 million meters now operating under the Programme which covers Great Britain. Northern Ireland is undertaking a separate roll-out programme.<\/p>
Currently, data is published only at Great Britain level. Data is not collected from energy suppliers in a way that allows constituency or regional-level data to be produced.<\/p>

DECC migrated to gov.uk in Jan 2013. Archives of the old DECC website (www.decc.gov.uk<\/a>) are available from the National Archives:<\/p> <\/p> http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/*/http://www.decc.gov.uk/<\/a>.<\/p> <\/p> From Jan 2013 to date, DECC published a total of 2513 publications and 181 consultations.<\/p> <\/p> Some consultations from before Jan 2013 are included on gov.uk, as the responses to these consultations were published after the Jan 2013 migration. It has not been possible to identify every single piece of material requested due to the migration to the new Gov.UK system in January 2013, and the disproportionate cost involved.<\/p> <\/p> A complete list of all DECC publications can be found at:<\/p>
