00:00 Well look, this is good news for families.
00:02 It means that they'll be paying the lowest amount for their energy bills in two years,
00:07 almost £250 off their energy bills.
00:10 So this is welcome news and I know it's been a difficult time for the country.
00:13 This is going to be the lowest amount that people are paying for their energy bills in
00:17 two years and £250 almost coming off people's energy bills is going to be really welcome
00:23 news for families up and down the country.
00:26 We still have things like the cost of living payments in place, £900 for people who are
00:31 really struggling because we know there are some people who are still having a difficult
00:34 time but overall this is good news for people in the country today.
