The Government monitors the impact of inflation to ensure that its legal commitments are met, while setting out a proportionate, pragmatic approach to delivering net zero that reduces the costs and burdens on British families. The cost effectiveness of all relevant schemes are monitored and scheme statistics are regularly published on gov.uk.
