To ask the Scottish Government what funding is (a) currently available and (b) planned to support the decarbonisation of domestic and non-domestic buildings in South Lanarkshire.

The answer

Answered by Stephen Gethins on 6 Nov 2026 · 9 days after it was lodged, on time

Grant funding is allocated annually to every Scottish local authority through the Heat in Buildings Area Based Schemes. This is based upon levels of fuel poverty and 'hard to help' properties, as agreed with COSLA. This year we have offered South Lanarkshire a grant of £2,779,000 to deliver local retrofit projects benefitting fuel poor households. More information about funding allocated and claimed by local councils since 2013 through Area Based Schemes is published on the Scottish Government website.Further funding for the decarbonisation of domestic and non-domestic buildings is also available through other Heat in Buildings schemes, but is not allocated by local authority area. The Heat and Buildings delivery scheme allocations are published here: Heat in Buildings Budget Allocations.
