Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what funding he plans to make available for improving insulation and energy efficiency in domestic buildings.

Improving energy efficiency in homes has an important role to play in reducing fuel poverty and tackling climate change.

The Government will continue to support home energy efficiency to 2028, at least at the level of funding of the current Energy Company Obligation scheme. This will drive more than £6 billion of investment in energy efficiency upgrades in homes.

A Future Homes Standard, introduced by 2025, will require new build homes to be future proofed with low carbon heating and world leading levels of energy efficiency.

The Government will announce plans for spending on economic infrastructure, including decarbonisation, in due course.
