Warm Homes Plan: Inspections
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether the Warm Homes Plan will include the use of clerks of works or equivalent independent site‑inspection roles.
Answered by Martin McCluskey
Energy efficiency measures installed under current Government energy efficiency schemes must be compliant with PAS 2035/2030 to ensure installations are done to the highest quality and the risk of unintended consequences. The Retrofit Coordinator role within PAS 2035 has that role of project manager, taking overall responsibility for overseeing from inception to completion.
Government is consulting on reforms to the consumer protection system and seek views on proposals for government to have stronger central oversight of the system for government funded home upgrade schemes. This will include how government can set clear expectations, monitor performance and ensure accountability across schemes to drive higher quality installations, which are carried out right first time.
