If solar grants were included in the warmer homes scheme, I think that would be a game-changer for people who are at risk of poverty, including energy poverty. The closer we get to winter, I think this will become more of an issue, so I welcome the fact that the Minister will look at this when he is looking at the scheme in the round.

As regards this subhead, energy transformation, is this where capital expenditure would go in the event that agreement is reached on an LNG facility? Would that go into this section of the budget?
