HC Deb 02 February 1995 vol 253 c764W
Mr. Deva

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what plans he has to increase the funds available for the home energy efficiency scheme in the current financial year.

Mr. Gummer

I am pleased to announce that we have been able to increase the provision for the home energy efficiency scheme by £8.85 million, bringing the total available for grants in 1994–95 to about £77 million. This is a welcome boost to a successful and high quality scheme.
