Text
Ms Egan asked the Minister for the Economy, given that the price of home heating oil is now in excess of £550 for 500 litres, almost double what it was this time a year ago, and given that Northern Ireland has a much greater reliance on home heating oil than other parts of these islands, what discussions she has had with Executive colleagues and what representations she has made to the UK Government about access to funding for consumers in line with that provided for electricity and gas customers at this difficult time.
