Will the Deputy let me speak?

Utility companies should not be charging for gas or electricity that people are not using. I will ask the Minister to engage with the utility companies on this. People should be charged for what they are using. We have provided rates relief which is extensive and significant in terms of the amounts of money involved. We have also provided supports through EWSS, the employment wage subsidy scheme, CRSS, the Covid-19 restrictions support scheme, and the pandemic unemployment subsidy.
