To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will meet with representatives from the maritime sector to discuss the potential impact of rising energy costs on the sector and its ability to ensure that critical supply chains remain operational.
I will be meeting with representatives from the maritime sector for a general introduction in the coming few weeks.
The recently announced Energy Bill Relief Scheme (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-outlines-plans-to-help-cut-energy-bills-for-businesses) ensures that all businesses and other non-domestic customers are protected from excessively high energy bills over the winter period. A review of the scheme, to be published in three months, will identify the most vulnerable non-domestic customers and how the government will continue assisting them with energy costs after the initial six months.
