GREEN DEAL AND MICROGENERATION

Early day motion 1637, tabled 22 March 2011 by Martin Caton (Labour). Signed by 54 members.

That this House notes that the proposed legislation setting up the Green Deal enables microgeneration to be part of this new scheme for making homes more energy efficient and reducing emissions of carbon dioxide; and therefore hopes that, when the details of the Green Deal are published, microgeneration technologies will be part of the final scheme, not only because they can assist with reducing emissions, but also because they can help in alleviating fuel poverty and in increasing public awareness of energy matters.

Signatures by party: Labour 28, Liberal Democrat 12, DUP 4, Conservative 3, Social Democratic and Labour Party 3, Plaid Cymru 2, Alliance 1, Green 1.
