EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Order amends the Capital Allowances (Energy-saving Plant and Machinery) Order 2001 (S.I. 2001/2541, as amended). That Order implemented legislation, inserted into the Capital Allowances Act 2001 (c. 2) by paragraph 2 of Schedule 17 to the Finance Act 2001 (c. 9), so as to introduce a scheme for 100% first-year allowances to encourage businesses to invest in energy-saving plant and machinery.

This Order substitutes new definitions of “the Energy Technology Criteria List” and “the Energy Technology Product List”.

The Lists specified in article 2 are available at www.eca.gov.uk.

A full and final Impact Assessment has not been produced for this instrument as a negligible impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
