A Senedd inquiry report said the Warm Homes Programme lacked the "scale, size and purpose" to meet people's needs.

Labour's Jenny Rathbone, who led the inquiry, called the programme "in many ways a failure", as ministers warned 45% of Wales' households could be in fuel poverty by the winter.

Welsh ministers welcomed the report.

The Welsh government defines fuel poverty as when people have to spend more than 10% of their income to heat their home properly.

Household budgets are facing huge pressure with rising inflation and hikes in energy prices a major factor.

UK inflation, the rate at which prices are rising, jumped to 9% in the 12 months to April, up from 7% in March - the highest rate for 40 years - and is expected to continue to rise this year.

Last month, typical energy bills in Britain rose from £1,277 to £1,971, after regulator Ofgem raised the price cap and are forecast to jump a further 32% when the cap goes up again in October.
