Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent on 10 April 2025 (HL6032), whether the arm's-length body "Project Seahorse" has been established; what is the proposed function of that body; and what budget has been allocated to that body in the period covered by the Spending Review 2025.

The body in question is the Warm Homes Agency, which is a new public body being set up to support the delivery of the Warm Homes Plan. The Agency will provide trusted consumer advice, support the supply chain, and consolidate some existing delivery organisations into an Executive Agency. The Government has committed £15 billion in the wider Warm Homes Plan. Specific operational budget allocations for the Agency will be determined in due course and are subject to standard Government approval processes.
