Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, if he will expand the Energy Bills Support Scheme Alternative Funding to include people whose primary residence is on a non-permanent caravan or mobile home site.

A requirement of the Energy Bills Support Scheme Alternative Funding application process is proof of address, which is to protect public funds against fraudulent activity. The Government understands some households who are reside in a non-permanent caravan or mobile home site may not be able to provide proof that their caravan or mobile home is their main or sole residence. The Government is working to find an acceptable method for these households to provide this proof so they can claim their support.
