Barber keen to move forward date for ending 'legacy' boiler fittings
The minister responsible for building control on the Isle of Man admits it's frustrating to see fossil fuel boilers being installed in new-build properties.
Clare Barber says her department is looking at ways to bring forward the ban on such heating appliances being fitted in new homes.
The ban is currently due to come into force in 2025 as part of the government's aims to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
Mrs Barber believes fossil fuel boilers are already too dated to go into new buildings:
