Shapps makes zero-carbon definition pledge

摘要

Shadow housing minister Grant Shapps has pledged to define exactly what a code level six home would mean "within weeks" of a potential Tory victory in next year's expected general election. Speaking this week at the UK Green Building Council's Conference - Making Sustainable Development Happen - Mr Shapps said that he was frustrated by the slow pace of consultation on government requirements that all new homes should be zero-carbon by 2016.
