Question
Further to WQ90630 and WQ92736, will the Cabinet Secretary provide a date when the review into permitted development rights, including heat pumps, will be completed?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Housing, Local Government and Planning
We are in the early stages of reviewing a range of permitted development rights including those relating to heat pumps to help promote widespread take up of the technology. A provisional timetable setting out when changes could come into effect is under consideration.
The Welsh Government’s research, and ongoing UK Government work into Air Source Heat Pumps, will inform any future changes to permitted development rights in Wales.
