This Government is providing breathing space to families in Wales who are reliant on heating oil.

Last week, we announced that we would suspend the 4% tariff on heating oil which will support the 105,000 Welsh households that rely on it to heat their homes. We have also provided £53 million to support low-income households with heating oil costs, including £3.8 million to support households in Wales.
