Heat in Buildings Consultation Dunfermline
Created: 05/02/2024
News/Events Category: Consultations
The Scottish Government is proposing to make new laws around the heating systems that can be used in homes and places of work, which will help Scotland reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and reach its legally binding net zero targets.
A number of online and in-person events have been organised across Scotland for people to learn what is being proposed in the Scottish Government’s Heat in Buildings Bill and to share their opinions through facilitated discussions.
The sessions are being delivered by environmental charity Keep Scotland Beautiful, on behalf of the Scottish Government.
