answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/02/2017 answer text <p>There are approximately 2 million customers benefitting from the Warm Home Discount rebate. Currently, participating energy suppliers administer the discount and cannot guarantee customers their rebate at exactly the same time, especially Broader Group customers who need to apply when supplier schemes open. This group make up approximately 40% of the scheme.</p><p> </p><p>The Department is working closely with Ofgem and delivery partners so that suppliers are able to deliver the maximum number of rebates as speedily as possible. For winter 2017/18, the Department for Work and Pensions will provide the bulk of Core Group customer details to energy suppliers in August 2017. The Digital Economy Bill currently going through Parliament will provide powers that can potentially further improve data matching.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 23/02/2017 15:26:43 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman previous answer version 36473 answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
