UK government sources say households are unlikely to receive additional energy bill support before the October price cap rise, though more targeted measures could be considered if there is a further shock in January. Gas and electricity prices will increase by 4% in October, following a 13% rise in July driven by global market effects from the US-Iran conflict. Officials, including Andy Burnham and Chancellor John Healey, have stopped short of pledging further intervention beyond the existing VAT cut on domestic electricity bills.
