Information about Section 31 of the Local Government Act 2003

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (formerly the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy) provided Salix approval to allow Phase 1 Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme projects that have been funded under Section 31 of the Local Government Act 2003 to have longer to complete. This gave Salix the ability to exercise discretion in approving practical completion dates up to 30 June 2022.
