Hon Don Foster MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) released a written statement to parliament confirming that the revised Energy Performance of Buildings Regulations will come into force on 9th January 2013. These changes will have a direct impact upon the production and use of EPCs by Estate and Lettings Agents and are therefore advised to read the statement which can be viewed online by clicking on the following link:
