Subject: Motions Report Number: 10 Date: 11 December 2002 Report to: Assembly Report of: Head of Assembly Support The following motion has been proposed in the name of Darren Johnson Motion on Clean Energy That this Assembly supports the domestic energy efficiency target set under the Home Energy Conservation Act 1995 of a 30% improvement by 2011 based on 1996 levels; notes that a virtually identical target has been suggested in recent reports by the Performance and Innovation Unit and the Energy Saving Trust; stresses the importance of this target for reasons of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases; ending fuel poverty and ensuring the business certainty needed to stimulate long-term investment by companies producing energy saving goods. The Assembly therefore welcomes the consultation recently announced by the Treasury into ways in which fiscal measures and policies can be used to stimulate domestic energy efficiency and so resolves to (i) (ii) (iii) Support the Clean Dozen list of policies supported and being promoted by a number of organisations including the Association for the Conservation of Energy, Friends of the Earth, Greenpeace, Help the Aged, the RSPB and the British Energy Efficiency Federation as well as Energy Efficiency Advice Centres and urges the Treasury to support and implement those measures expeditiously. Write to the Chancellor of the Exchequer informing him of the council’s support for the Clean Dozen Write to local MPs asking them to support the Clean Dozen and to write to the Chancellor of the Exchequer informing him of that support Let the HECA Partnership of NGOs know of this decision.
