I raise an issue related to the fuel allowance, which has been discussed extensively today. I refer to the delay in approving applications to the scheme. In the past week, I was contacted by a constituent who applied for a fuel allowance payment four months ago and has not yet been informed whether she is eligible for a payment. Given the extremely long winter we are having, does the Government have plans to speed up the application process for the fuel allowance?
