North East Hertfordshire MP Oliver Heald has welcomed the news that the Community Development Agency for Hertfordshire has joined a national scheme for bulk buying of heating oil. Hertfordshire residents are able to order oil through the CDA at bulk order prices, currently 54.8p per litre for kerosene. This compares to an average price quoted by other suppliers of 61.5 p per litre. All prices exclude VAT at 5%. There is a £20 per year charge to cover the administration costs.
Commenting Oliver Heald said “This is an excellent scheme for Hertfordshire residents and shows all the advantages of a Big Society approach. I congratulate the CDA for Hertfordshire on making this national scheme available to my constituents.”
