This is a Private Members Bill introduced by Lord Redesdale. This Bill makes provision about the energy rating of residential properties on the market and about energy efficiency and microgeneration. The Bill provides that all Home Information Packs and marketing materials used to sell a property, should include information about the energy rating of the property. The Bill also provides for amendments to be made to the laws regulating Council Tax and development orders.
