Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, what assessment her Department has made of the potential effect of its review of the feed-in-tariff scheme on (a) the solar industry and (b) the small and medium-sized British businesses in that industry.

The impact of the review of the Feed-in Tariff scheme (FITs) on businesses in that sector will depend on the options taken forward after the review. We expect to gather more information from the industry as part of consultation on the review which runs until 23^rd October.
