I have no plans to include water harvesting (i.e. rain capturing) in the Better Energy: Warmer Homes scheme, which provides energy efficiency improvements to low-income homes, and is by definition designed to improve the energy performance of domestic dwellings. Water Harvesting is a water management technique and thus more appropriate to my colleague, the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government and not one in which I have any function.
