Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, pursuant to the Answer of 23 October 2020 to Question 106216 on Green Homes Grant Scheme: Park Homes, what steps he is taking to enable park home owners to comply with the requirement to obtain three qualified TrustMark registered installers under the Green Homes Grant Voucher Scheme when only two businesses are certified installers; and if he will extend the expiry date of the scheme for park home installations beyond 31 March 2021 in recognition of the delay before park home owners became eligible to apply.

As of 10 November, five TrustMark registered businesses were certified to install measures in park homes. We are aware of the relatively low numbers registered and are working closely with the industry to help more businesses obtain the relevant certifications.

As set out in out the Green Homes Grant scheme guidance, although customers are advised to obtain three quotes, only one is required for application to the scheme.

The Green Homes Grant scheme will be time-limited, to help stimulate the economic recovery and support and create tens of thousands of green jobs. Any potential funding allocations for future years will be considered as part of the spending review.
