Mid-Bedfordshire constituency is linked to Bedford weather station. The number of times cold weather payments have been triggered at this weather station in each year since 2002-03 is given in the following table:
Cold weather payment triggers at Bedford weather station Number 2002-03 1 2003-04 0 2004-05 0 2005-06 0 2006-07 0 2007-08 0 2008-09 3 Source: DWP records. It is not possible to give the estimated number of payments made in 2002-03 and 2008-09 to residents of Mid-Bedfordshire constituency as this information is not available at constituency level but only by weather station (and Bedford weather station covers a wider area than just this constituency).
