What consideration is currently given to the war disablement pension as qualifying criteria for warm home grant applications in Wales?
Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Climate Change
The war disablement pension is not currently listed as a qualifying means tested benefit for the Warm Homes Programme, Nest Scheme.
I have recently published a suite of documents including a policy statement, which will inform the detailed design of the new Warm Homes programme. The policy statement sets out how we will set a low-income threshold, rather than basing eligibility solely on means tested benefits, to ensure we target our support to the poorest in society. I will also publish a tender specification for the procurement for the new, demand led scheme shortly.
