Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what is the average number of days people wait to receive a voucher from the Green Homes Grant scheme after the application has been approved.
Official scheme statistics will be published in due course.
We have designed the voucher process to automate checks where possible and minimise the time taken for voucher approval. However, applications must be thoroughly checked for compliance with the scheme rules to help ensure value for money, consumer protection, and detect malpractice. We will continue to work to reduce the time between application and issuance, where possible.
BEIS will continue to monitor application data as the scheme progresses.
