MSP warms to boiler fund

THE return of the Scottish Government's Cashback for Boilers scheme has been welcomed by local MSP Angela Constance.

Funding of 2.5 million have been made available for more than 6,000 households in Scotland to receive up to 400 towards the cost of a new boiler.

Ms Constance said: "I urge my constituents who qualify to apply for this scheme. This successful programme helps our community become more energy efficient, and households can expect to save around 190 a year on fuel bills."
