The 2005/06 Review of the Renewables Obligation (RO) closed on 9 December 2005, following a statutory consultation. A number of options for amendments to improve the effectiveness of the RO in certain areas were put forward in the statutory consultation document and the Government has made its decisions on these, set out in the note below, which will be implemented in the 2006 England & Wales RO Order. The draft Order accompanies this note and includes the proposed changes - which will also be introduced in Scotland and Northern Ireland - to come into force from 1 April 2006.
