Housing and Health Committee convenor Peter Barrett has just announced a new scheme to provide free insulation to 6000 homes in Highland Perthshire. Earlier this summer, PKC previously announced they were starting to build significant numbers of council houses again, with 81 already in the pipeline. With a very significant projected increase in population within Perth & Kinross over the next 10-15 years, housing is a big issue, and with fuel prices rising again today, home insulation is becoming more relevant than ever before.
Very well done Peter for helping to facilitate practical means of delivering on these issues.
