Ministers and officials have received numerous representations from, and held many meetings with, the solar industry and project investors about the impacts of our consultation proposals on the solar sector since the consultation opened on 13 May.

The consultation closed on 7 July. The responses and evidence submitted in response to the consultation are now being analysed. We will publish a Government Response setting out our decision as soon as possible.
