Change the new qualifying criteria for the £150 warm home payment
We now no longer qualify for the payment due to this new criteria
Change the criteria to a more sensible level instead of the size and age of your property. Absolutely disgraceful. Disabled and elderly like ourselves are already struggling to heat or eat during this cost of living crisis. Our health conditiins are severly affected by the cold so we have to use more energy in the winter. Our house gets extremely cold during these months and changing to this ridiculous criteria doesn't make our home any warmer!!!
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about eligibility for the Warm Home Discount Scheme, but it's not clear exactly how you want this to be changed.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, we could accept a petition calling on the Government to remove the eligibility criteria about a property having a high energy cost score based on its characteristics, for people who get certain means-tested benefits or tax credits.
