Council says government must place more urgency on insulation
The council which won a clean energy prize says the government must show much greater urgency in insulating people's homes.
Kirklees Council in West Yorkshire made the comments after winning the Ashden award.
It was given the prestigious prize for its major home refurbishment programme.
The council says the UK government could save families £200 a year and cut greenhouse gases if it guaranteed the cash for a nationwide "refurb".
In response, the government told the BBC it plans a nationwide scheme based on Kirklees, and that the criticisms are misguided.
The council’s approach was pretty unique.
It sent hit squads of workers street to street, offering everybody free loft and cavity wall insulation with no conditions.
Kershaw Contracting Services provides cavity wall and loft insulation to home owners, builders and contractors.
