(a) 8 September 2010.
(b) The report will not be made public.
(c) The Government does not intend to respond to the report.
(d-f) The Government's election commitment was to undertake a feasibility study to investigate extending the feed-in tariff scheme to small business and commercial premises. This commitment has been implemented. The feed-in tariff scheme for residential customers has been suspended and hence the question of whether to extend the scheme to commercial customers is redundant.
