Stage 1 Report on the Heat Networks (Scotland) Bill - General principles of the Bill
We draw particular attention to those paragraphs in which we made recommendations or sought further detail or assurances—
We ask that the Scottish Government keeps us updated on the progress of discussions with the UK Government and Ofgem (paragraph 82);
We invite the Scottish Government to clarify the future development of the licensing and regulatory regime (paragraph 83);
The Committee asks the Scottish Government to further reflect on the inclusion of an appeals process in the Bill, whether there may be scope for an amendment to provide for this, and, if not, what further assurances it can provide as to the opportunity and transparency of a right to appeal (paragraph 84);
We seek further detail on the Minister’s indication that it would be sensible not to apply the requirement to hold a licence to those networks serving only the owner’s premises (paragraph 86);
The Committee invites the Scottish Government to reflect on the evidence heard in favour of including fuel poverty on the face of the Bill, discuss further with its Scottish Fuel Poverty Partnership Forum, and – in advance of the Stage 1 debate – bring forward a proposal for how best to address the policy imperative of fuel poverty within the wording of the legislation (paragraphs 131 and 132);
We invite the Scottish Government to set out how it will address the absence of a formal role for communities and local authorities in the planning and consent of heat network schemes, ensure consumer protection, and bring about a step change in public engagement and awareness of the role of heat in carbon reduction (paragraphs 133, 135, 137, 141, 142, 143 and 182);
The Committee believes it is desirable for the balance of powers between Ministers and local government to be modified over time and the Bill should make provision for this (paragraph 136);
We invite the Scottish Government to reflect on whether its ambitions for the impact of the Bill are on a level with those already set out for tackling climate change and pursuing a green recovery (paragraph 139);
The Committee asks what the expected timeframe is for new heat networks coming into operation under the framework of this legislation (paragraph 139);
We suggest the Scottish Government consider presenting a case study on heat networks at COP26 (paragraph 140);
The Committee invites the Scottish Government to share the wording of the policy that will inform the statutory underpinning for Local Heat and Energy Efficiency Strategies prior to Stage 2 (paragraph 183);
We ask the Scottish Government to provide further details in respect of—
The budget for LHEES and how costs will be shared with local authorities;
The stage of development and expected timing of that secondary legislation;
An update on progress with the pilot scheme and its likely completion date...
