Asked by: Kevin Foster (Conservative - Torbay)
Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:
What recent discussions he has had with Cabinet colleagues on energy costs for the hospitality and tourism sectors.
Answered by Amanda Solloway - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury
I would like to thank my hon Friend the Member for Torbay for his tireless work to support the hospitality and tourism sector across his constituency.
The Energy Bill Relief Scheme has provided much needed support with high energy costs over the winter. We continue to work closely with the sector, including through the newly-established Hospitality Sector Council and across Government to ensure a successful future for these important industries.
