Introduction
The Existing Homes Alliance welcomes the opportunity to submit evidence to the Local Government and Communities Committee ahead of its scrutiny of the Scottish Government’s draft budget for 2017/18. Budget decisions will have a significant bearing on the delivery of the Scottish Government’s flagship policy to tackle climate change and fuel poverty – schemes to improve the energy efficiency of existing homes. With responsibility for ensuring that policies deliver against Scotland’s Climate Change Act now mainstreamed across Government, the Committee has a vital role to play to ensure that these schemes are funded at the scale necessary to deliver against Scotland’s Climate Change Act.
