Green Deal News from Department of Energy and Climate Change..

On the 4th of October we achieved an important milestone for the Green Deal when the Energy Bill cleared the House of Lords without any further amendments or additional votes.

The next stage is for the Bill to receive Royal Assent, which we expect shortly.


As you are aware the Bill contains powers that will allow householders to pay for energy efficiency improvements to their homes from the savings they make by using less gas and electricity.

Preparations continue for the launch of the Green Deal consultation at the end of October.
As key stakeholders your support fine tuning the details of policy and secondary legislation has been crucial and I extend my thanks to you. It's important that we gain the maximum input into our consultation, and so we are planning an extensive engagement programme to discuss the content with you and
ensure you can feed in your views as soon as possible.

There is more progress to report and I will be writing to you again later this month with a fuller update."Greg Barker, DECC Minister
