Why this procedure was chosen
Our fuel poor partner CE, are the only supplier who will have the established customer relationship and access to relevant information through their fuel poor assessment work and therefore the ability to determine appropriate applicants for the Customer Support Fund, as outlined in this contract. It would not be possible to have the same set up with any other supplier as a result of this. This further extension is to provide additional funding to support customers from 1st July 2025 until 31st March 2026. The funding which has already been provided via this mechanism has been utilised and additional funding has become available. Without this additional funding, CE will no longer be able to support customers in this regard.
