Tuesday 8th March 2022 Ministerial Corrections

Household Support Fund

The following is an extract from the Westminster Hall debate on the Household Support Fund on 1 March 2022.

[David Rutley]

We are unfortunately not yet able to discuss the interim management information collected from the household support fund so far. The information gathered from the scheme will be published once the scheme has closed and the data has been properly analysed and checked by our officials. That management information on the household support fund will provide helpful further details on how local authorities have been using this important funding. The covid winter grant scheme management information was published in June 2021, and the covid local support grant management information was published in September 2021.
