HC Deb 12 July 2000 vol 353 c592W
Mr. Whittingdale

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer for what reason heat pumps have not been included on the initial list of recommended technologies eligible for climate change levy tax incentives; and if he will make a statement. [129648]

Mr. Timms

The list was drawn up to include technologies with the greatest potential to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Six were identified initially on this basis. Two more have been added subsequently. The Government will keep the list under review.
