Energy Efficiency Failure

EDM number 343 in 2013-14, proposed by George Galloway on 02/07/2013.
Categorised under the topics of Energy conservation and Housing.

That this House is concerned that, five months after the launch of the Government?s Green Deal, not a single household in Britain has completed the process of making their home more energy-efficient under the scheme; notes that, of all the cash back payments, 99 per cent. were for boiler upgrades; recalls that in 2012 the Climate Minister claimed that eight million solid wall homes had no affordable solution to insulation and that the Green Deal would change that; laments the failure of the scheme; and concludes that the general public are not convinced by the financing model or the Government?s commitment to energy-saving measures.

This motion has been signed by a total of 8 MPs.
