Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether his Department will introduce further targeted affordability funding to help address the cost of living pressures.
The government appreciates the challenges people are facing as a result of how the rising cost of living is making life harder for people. These are global challenges however, as set out in the Spring Statement, the government is providing support worth over £22 billion this financial year to help families with these pressures.
We stand ready to take further action as the pressures the UK faces become clearer.
