FUEL POVERTY IN WESTMORLAND AND LONSDALE

Early day motion 1029, tabled 7 March 2017 by Tim Farron (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 9 members.

That this House recognises that there are 4,469 households across Westmorland and Lonsdale constituency living in fuel poverty; acknowledges the hardship and suffering this causes; regrets that so few residents have benefitted from the main national energy efficiency programme; and calls on the Government to introduce a new Warmer Homes, Cheaper Energy insulation scheme to target support at those households living in fuel poverty.
