Committee on Climate, Environment and Energy
Carbon Budget: Climate Change Advisory Council

I have a couple of final questions. They are more to do with the areas of just transition and affordability. We have had a number of difficulties with heat pumps and the move to EV cars. They are generally accepted to be out of reach to people with limited incomes. What does the council think of the schemes put in place in recent years, the lack of take-up of them and the lack of charging facilities and affordability? Do the witnesses have any opinions as to what should be done? Are more resources needed? What is their opinion?
