A recent report forecast that energy prices could rise to £2,032.66 a year in January Ahead of the Commons returning on Monday, Stephen Flynn pushed for the measure – which ended in March – to be brought back in before expected price rises over the winter.
Mr Flynn said: “Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer are hammering household incomes with their reckless support for Brexit, austerity cuts and damaging Westminster policies that have sent the cost of living in the UK soaring through the roof.“With energy bills still around double what they were in 2021, standing charges rising, and families struggling to cope with the growing cost of mortgages, rents and bills, it’s vital the UK Government brings back the £400 energy bill rebate from October.
“Scotland is an energy rich country and it’s a scandal that Westminster is forcing families to pay through the nose for a resource we have in plenty.
