Self-Employed Flat Rate Working From Home - Any Plans to Increase?

Options
I've been using simplified expenses as I've been working from home for the last 3 years. Obviously, this tax year energy costs are going to be substantially higher than last year. Does anyone know of any plans to increase the flat rate for simplified expenses? I know it's probably a no because the government are always a bit behind on sorting out things for self-employed people, but before I start emailing my MP about it I just wanted to check to see if anyone had heard anything.

    Given that personal allowances have been frozen, I doubt that there will be any change. There is no change on the GOV.UK page as of today.
