I have an example from the Irish Cancer Society, which contacted me ahead of this session. It referenced people who are receiving palliative care at home. There is a very strong argument to be made that those people need something akin to a fuel allowance, because they are going to spend a lot of time at home.

I realise it is difficult but it is essential to understand the importance of retrofitting as an energy-poverty intervention, which is what we are looking at here. I know it is a complicated question. It is difficult to make a straight comparison but it would be useful to have a ballpark figure.
