Proceeding contribution from James Purnell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 December 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Benefits Uprating.
Benefits Uprating
I completely agree with my hon. Friend. The Eaga partnership has made real progress on getting people to take up energy efficiency measures and to get new central heating systems fitted. However, it is important that we reach everybody who is entitled to that help and particularly people who may be socially isolated. The extra funding announced yesterday by the Chancellor will aim to do exactly that. I urge hon. Members to make sure that they publicise the Eaga partnership and the work of the Warm Front scheme to as many of their constituents as possible.
