Fuel Allowance (FA) may be payable to certain households in receipt of long term social welfare payments. The allowance is subject to a means test and is paid only to those who live alone or with certain exempted people. Only one Fuel Allowance is payable per household.
Following a review, entitlement to FA has been restored for the person concerned from 23 April 2026 and all arrears due will issue to their nominated bank account for payment date on 07 May 2026. The person referred to was notified of this decision on 01 May 2026.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
