    One of the aims of the CSH is to reduce carbon emissions

    However, with the expensive and perhaps hastily drafted requirements of the Code, combined with a long term recession, we seem to be entering a period in which it will be uneconomic to build new homes on any scale.

    If this occurs, the CSH, in combination with an inflexible planning system, may delay the replacement of existing carbon hungry homes making the CSH a net carbon contributor.
