Submitted by Mike Wilson – Deadline to sign up by: 06 February 2008 – Signatures: 53
VAT on energy efficient devices such as low-energy light bulbs and white goods rated "A" or above should be removed. This will promote the buying public to buy these. In addition VAT should be removed on solar-thermal panels, solar-electric panels and wind turbines. In parallel, a ban on normal light bulbs must be in place by 1st January 2009. Lastly, white goods with an energy rating of "D" or below must be phased out by 1st January 2009.
