The CLA (Country Land and Business Association) has commented on the Government’s ‘Warm Homes Plan’ – which adopted some of the CLA’s proposals – to upgrade the nation’s homes, help families cut their energy bills, and tackle fuel poverty.
The ‘Warm Homes Plan’ will deliver £15 billion of public investment, roll out upgrades to up to 5 million homes that could save them hundreds on energy bills and help to lift up to a million families out of fuel poverty by 2030. Read about the detail.
CLA President Gavin Lane said:
“Rural landlords are committed to improving the energy efficiency of the UK’s housing stock, and we are pleased that a number of CLA proposals have been adopted to help meet this ambition.
“This announcement provides certainty and reassurance, particularly to those who are already making upgrades that they will not be penalised in future for taking early action.
“Adopting a single implementation date of 2030 recognises that the sector needs time to prepare, and we welcome the chance to engage further on the needs of the rural and heritage sector.”
