High-level priorities agreed are:

1. To contribute to the development of the Fuel Poverty Bill and Draft Fuel Poverty Strategy; and

2.

As part of this work-plan members also confirm their responsibility to:

• monitor progress on the Fuel Poverty Strategic Working Group and Rural Fuel Poverty Task Force's recommendations to Scottish Government

• engage with strategic policy stakeholder groups, for example, the Poverty and Inequalities Committee and Energy Efficient Scotland Delivery Board
