DFC takes the lead on the fuel poverty strategy. However, the actions that will deliver change sit across government. Therefore, we have collective responsibility to support the people who are worst impacted on by fuel poverty. My Department has several areas of policy responsibility that can positively influence fuel poverty outcomes; most notably, strategic energy policy. My officials engage regularly and are represented at senior level at the DFC fuel poverty strategy board and housing supply strategy board. My officials also co-chair a residential housing coordination group on decarbonisation. At my most recent engagement with Minister Lyons on the housing supply strategy, those areas were referenced due to the many interdependencies that exist.
