The Disclosure of State Pension Credit Information (Warm Home Discount) Regulations 2011
These Regulations authorise the sharing of data between the Secretary of State and electricity suppliers and should be read in conjunction with the Warm Home Discount Regulations 2011 (S.I. 2011/1033) (the “Warm Home Regulations”) which enable the Secretary of State to require certain electricity suppliers (essentially, those who hold a licence under section 6(1)(d) of the Electricity Act 1989) to provide a rebate to certain customers who are in receipt of state pension credit (or who have a partner who is in receipt of state pension credit).
