Baseline Key Performance Indicators Sustainable and Secure Buildings Act: Baseline Key Performance Indicator report on Section 6(2) (e) and 6(3)
Abstract:
The Sustainable & Secure Buildings Act 2004 extends the purposes of the Building Act 1984 so as to improve the sustainability of the building stock in England & Wales in respect of energy efficiency, preventing waste, furthering the protection of the environment, facilitating sustainable development and furthering the prevention and detection of crime. Section 6 of the Act requires DCLG to submit a biennial report to Parliament on the effects (or likely effects) of measures that are planned under the SSBA as well as those which have already been introduced in the two-year reporting period. Specifically, Section 6(2)(e) requires the report to cover: "Overall changes during the period in:- The efficiency with which energy is used in buildings in England and Wales
- Levels of emissions from such buildings that are emissions considered by the Secretary of State to contribute to climate change
- The extent to which such buildings have their own facilities for generating energy
- The extent to which materials used in constructing, or carrying out works in relation to, such buildings are recycled or re-used materials."
A further related reporting requirement is contained in Section 6(3) of the Act. Specifically this is "A report under this section must contain an estimate, as at the end of the period, of the number of dwellings in England and Wales".
The focus of this report is the requirements under Section 6(2)(e) and 6(3) - the reporting requirements under Section 6(2)(a) to (d) are addressed in a companion report1. As a first step, a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) were proposed to provide initial benchmarks for the building stock in England & Wales in respect of items (i) to (iv) which can then be used to measure changes in performance during each two-year reporting period. The first reporting period covers November 2004 to November 2006.
