Context
In the fiscal year 2021-22, thousands of pensioners in Kettering and north Northamptonshire received winter fuel payments. The speaker estimates similar numbers will have received a £300 pensioner cost of living payment in 2022-23.
In 2021-22, almost 18,000 pensioners in Kettering, over 60,000 pensioners in north Northamptonshire and more than 9 million pensioners in England received a winter fuel payment. We estimate that similar numbers will have received the £300 pensioner cost of living payment in 2022-23. Will those 18,000 pensioners in receipt of the pensioner cost of living payment also receive additional support such as the £400 energy bill discount, the £150 council tax rebate, the £150 disability cost of living payment and the £150 warm home discount? Will they also benefit from the energy price guarantee, saving a typical household £900 a year?
