This means millions of gas and electricity bills are on course to increase by 54% from April 1, putting additional pressure on household finances across the country.

The UK Government will pay £200 into every electricity bill-payer’s account in October to help offset the price cap. This will be repaid from April 2023 for five years.

Council Tax bill-payers in bands A to D, or those already receiving a Reduction in Scotland, will receive £150 non-repayable credit either to their bank account if the pay by Direct Debit or directly into their Council Tax account.
