RBC are not cancelling their plans as they are saying that schemes for community,commercial and social housing buildings are unaffected, and therefore are pressing forward.
That doesn't seem to fit with your quote! any ideas ?
Not sure what you mean Howard. Schemes built before a cut off date in Dec will get the subsidy. Its planned future schemes that will be cancelled.
I'm only repeating what RBC said in an e-mail this week. I haven't done any checking , but so far as RBC are concerned nothing has changed in this area. This was from the 'sustainability team' working on RBC's solar project. I would like to think that they know what they are talking about but .........
Update on previous comment.
I attended an RBC workshop yesterday and I can confirm that they are pressing ahead as quickly as possible to install all they can by the end of March.
