Accepted
Paragraph: 104
The Green Homes Grant was an important and welcomed initiative.
Conclusion
The Green Homes Grant was an important and welcomed initiative. However, the way in which the Government designed the Green Homes Grant, both as a short- term stimulus instead of a long-term national infrastructure project and as a hastily developed, outsourced scheme, was misguided. It is vital that the lessons are learned from the failure of the Green Homes Grant and that these lessons are implemented in the design and delivery of future financial support schemes.
Government response summary AI-generated
The Government is already working with regional government, providing funding through schemes like the National Skills Fund, and through the Shared Prosperity Fund, to invest in training and support SMEs in energy efficient and low carbon technologies.
