These Regulations will introduce a temporary change which will result in the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) no longer accepting requests for ongoing consumption payments from energy suppliers for either new arrangements or increased payments for DWP claimants. Claimants will still be able to request ongoing consumption payments if they choose to do so, or increase/alter any payments already in place.
