Council Tax Government Discretionary ‘Energy Rebate’ Scheme - Revised

The Council has been allocated £201,750 of grant funding from a £144m discretionary fund from the Government ‘to provide support to other energy bill payers who are not eligible under the terms of the core band A – D energy rebate scheme'. Crawley Borough Council has worked with all other West Sussex Districts and Boroughs to agree a joint scheme. A scheme was approved in March 2022, however, there has been low take up across the County for this joint scheme, therefore the scheme has been amended to allow a top-up for those on Council Tax Reduction.
