[holding answer 16 July 2007]: The Low Carbon Buildings Programme Phase 1 was launched in April 2006 with a £30 million budget. £1.5 million was allocated to the Clear Skies and Solar PV Major Demonstration programmes to smooth the transition between these programmes and the Low Carbon Buildings Programme. The allocations by funding stream for the remainder were as follows:
Funding stream Allocation1 (£ million) Household 6.5 Community 4.0 Large-scale projects up to £100,000 grants 6.0 Large-scale projects up to £1 million grants 12.0 1 Including management fees
A further £6.2 million of the total budget was re-allocated to the household stream in October 2006 given the higher than anticipated demand from householders. The revised allocations by funding stream were as follows:
Funding stream Allocation1 (£ million) Household 12.7 Community 2.9 Large-scale projects up to £100,000 grants 2.9 Large-scale projects up to £1 million grants 10.0 1 Including management fees
In the Budget 2007, the Chancellor announced that an additional £6 million would be made available to the household stream. The current allocations by funding stream are therefore as follows:
Funding stream Allocation1(£ million) Household 18.7 Community 2.9 Large-scale projects up to £100,000 grants 2.9 Large-scale projects up to £1 million grants 10.0 1 Including management fees
