Thursday, 22 April 2010 Following advice received from Dr Allan Hawke in his Review of the Administration of the Home Insulation Program, the Government has decided it will not proceed with the insulation component of the Renewable Energy Bonus Scheme (REBS). The insulation component of the REBS was due to commence on 1 June 2010. The solar hot water rebate component continues as previously announced. The REBS - solar hot water rebate applies for systems purchased and installed from 20 February 2010. Guidelines and application forms are now available. The Government's primary focus is on safety in the Home Insulation Program wind-up. The Government priority moving forward is the safety inspection programs for the Home Insulation Program.
