<p>The Government has no plans at present to extend the Green Deal scheme, but we
are reviewing the scheme and will consult before making any significant changes. The
interests of the consumer will be foremost in the review.</p><p> </p><p>Whilst the
Feed-in Tariffs (FIT) scheme allows for householders to assign the rights to FIT payments
to third parties, for example under a rent-a-roof scheme, it does not prescribe how
such arrangements should work; it is for the parties involved to arrive at a mutually
beneficial agreement. These are private agreements entered into between the consumer
and the third party which are not regulated by the Green Deal regulatory framework
or the FIT scheme. We would always advise householders who are considering entering
into such an agreement to seek legal advice before doing so to satisfy themselves
that the proposal being offered will be acceptable to them.</p><p> </p>
