Helen Whately

Conservative — Faversham and Mid Kent

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 March 2025

Debate

Winter Fuel Payment

Contribution

My hon. Friend makes an important point about transparency, and he recognises that this policy has had an impact not only on pensioners, but on other parts of Government, and therefore on other constituents. It is another thing that I hope the Government Back Benchers in the Chamber are taking note of, to pass on to their colleagues who, for some reason, have chosen not to be present to discuss this topic this afternoon.
