Thank you. It's extremely disappointing that the energy price guarantee is increasing, as you referred to, from £2,500 for a typical household to £3,000 for a further 12 months from the beginning of April this year. We know that in Wales many would need to spend far more than £3,000 due to the age of the housing stock and extremely high standing charges. I don't think the average that the UK Government refer to really reflects the houses here in Wales.

The pilot that you referred to, the in-home energy advice pilot, ran from March 2021 to March 2022 in three areas of Wales—Gwynedd, Ceredigion and Caerphilly. The purpose was to test and measure the effectiveness of providing in-home advice and support services to people across Wales in relation to tackling fuel poverty. There were benefits of the pilot, but at the moment officials are considering the balance of the cost, the benefits and targeting of the advice pilot. That's being considered as part of the advice offer as part of the development for the next iteration of the Warm Homes programme.

I think what's really important is that trusted advice and support. We currently have in place an enhanced winter fuel campaign. That began on 1 November through the Warm Homes programme Nest scheme. That's targeting a much wider audience than the pilot to which you referred. It's accessible for everybody who needs energy efficiency advice and guidance. Cost-effective advice services will also be included in the next iteration of the Warm Homes programme. As I say, officials are looking at that, as to what advice they do provide, for the Minister for Climate Change.
