Further information on this will be revealed in due course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The scheme will be evaluated in three months, with the Government set to publish a report to guide decisions on future support after March 2023, focussing on detecting non-domestic customers who are most at need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For help and advice on related matters, contact our team today.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Government has outlined a new Energy Bill Relief Scheme to support households, businesses and public sector organisations tackling soaring energy bills.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[26,6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19734","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog","category-economy"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>What do you need to know about the Energy Bill Relief Scheme?
