Heat in Buildings Bill consultation - tell us what you think: easy read

An easy read version of our consultation on proposals for a Heat in Buildings Bill - Changing how we heat our homes and buildings. We are seeking to set standards for energy efficiency and clean heat in homes and buildings.


Public sector buildings

Public sector buildings are run by the government to provide a service for the community – like hospitals, schools and council houses.

We plan that the Bill should make all buildings owned by Scottish public authorities including councils, use clean heating by the end of 2038.
