Been a few ‘one year on’ moments in the last few days, but a year ago today was an all-time great. Fans descending on Plainmoor from all over to show their love for the club. It was clear from that day there was a club worth saving #tufc #ttid

This week we published our DESNZ Overview 2023-24, summarising key information about the Department based on our previous audit work. The last couple of pages also summarise 'What to look out for' over the coming months. www.nao.org.uk/overviews/de...
A 'bubble diagram' summarising where the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero spent its money in 2023-24. It shows that nuclear decommissioning is by far the largest area of spend.

Catching up on gov's Warm Homes Plan announcements, one that stands out is the change in payment-in-lieu on the Clean Heat Market Mechanism from £3k to £500. It will be important for DESNZ to monitor the impact this has on the CHMM's effectiveness and adjust its plan accordingly
