Carbon monoxide alarms will be included in the Green Deal

The Green Deal will now require a carbon monoxide (CO) alarm to be fitted in every home whose residents are at risk of CO poisoning, after calls from the All Party Parliamentary Gas Safety Group (APPGSG).

Barry Sheerman MP, chair of the APPGSG, led a delegation of charity and gas industry experts to meet with Greg Barker MP, Minister of State for Climate Change, to argue the case for including CO alarms as part of the Green Deal.
