Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, pursuant to the Answer of 7th November 2022 to Question 75897 on Housing: Sefton Central, what steps his Department plans to take to increase the rate of loft insulation in Sefton Central.

The Government is committed to improving the energy performance of homes across the country, including in Sefton Central. The Government is therefore investing £12 billion in ‘Help to Heat’ schemes to ensure households can benefit from loft insulation and other energy efficiency measures.

The Government recently announced an additional £1bn to deliver further energy efficiency improvements through the Energy Company Obligation. ECO+ will help hundreds of thousands of households across Great Britain take action to reduce their energy bills.
