2 Good Things from Alastair Darling

2 Good Things from Alastair Darling

Posted by Jason Orme on 9th December 2009

For the self-builder, renovator and average homeowner, two good things from today's Pre-Budget Report.

Firstly, 2010 looks like being a good year to change that old boiler (insert slightly old joke about husband/wife here). The announcement today means that, at 'the earliest opportunity in 2010' a scheme will be launched to allow homeowners to claim up to £400 as a trade-in for their old, inefficient boiler. A bit like the car scheme, but for boilers.
