ANY OTHER BUSINESS – the big talking point was the issues clubs are facing with regards to energy prices.
Webmaster Steve Wall has now put a link on the League’s Facebook group that explains the Energy Bill Relief Scheme.
“It outlines the discount of 34p per KWh, this being given by the supplier at source,” says Steve
“It was clear some clubs were being quoted £1+ per KWh – but they should check whether this is before the government discount.
“However, the above is my interpretation of the Energy Bill Relief Scheme and I may be wrong.”
