The Government recently consulted on a proposal to close the Feed-in Tariffs (FIT) scheme from 1 April 2019. Under the consultation proposals, MCS scale community installations would have until 31 March 2019 to apply for pre-registration and would get the standard 12 month validity period in which to commission and apply to their FIT licensee for accreditation. They would receive the generation tariff available in the last tariff period before closure (i.e. the tariff available on 1 January 2019). They would receive an export tariff at the current rate available on the date that they apply to their FIT licensee.<\/p>

The Government recently consulted on a proposal to close the Feed-in Tariffs (FIT) scheme from 1 April 2019. For MCS scale community installations that apply for pre-registration on or before 31 March 2019, we proposed that the tariff rate they would receive would be determined by the date and time the installation\u2019s MCS certificate was issued in accordance with the existing scheme rules. For those installations that commission and apply to their FIT licensee after 31 March 2019, within their 12 month validity period, we proposed that the tariff rate would be that available in the last tariff period before closure (i.e. the tariff available on 1 January 2019). In all situations there would need to be sufficient space in the appropriate quarterly deployment cap in or prior to the tariff period in 2019 to accommodate the installation\u2019s capacity.<\/p>

Following the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change\u2019s Special Report on 1.5 degrees, published in October, we commissioned advice from our independent advisers, the Committee on Climate Change (CCC), on its long-term emissions reduction targets, including on the setting of a net zero target. This commission asks for evidence from the CCC on how reductions might be delivered in key sectors of the economy and the expected costs and benefits of different scenarios.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Committee will also publish a report on aviation in Spring 2019. As set out in the Committee\u2019s recent progress report, this will include consideration of the potential to reduce aviation emissions over the period to 2050 and beyond.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government will consider carefully the Committee\u2019s advice on both these issues when it is received. Subject to this review, the Government will consider whether it is appropriate to review the Airports National Policy Statement, in accordance with Section 6 of the Planning Act 2008.<\/p>"}

Individuals on work trials who are asked to complete work for an employer are likely to be classed as \u2018workers\u2019 and are entitled to the National Minimum Wage. Work trials may only be unpaid if they are part of a genuine recruitment exercise. An unpaid trial work period lasting a few hours may be reasonable and legal, but an unpaid work trial lasting more than one day is probably excessive and therefore illegal in all but exceptional circumstances. The Government has consulted with employers and trade unions on how to ensure greater clarity and better practice over work trials. We have just finalised new guidance that will be published in due course.<\/p>
