34.Do you think the framework for consent for the Green Deal charge and measures provides effective protection for the parties involved?
35.What is the best way to draw the future bill payer’s attention to the acknowledgement wording?
36.What will property professions need to do to assist with the effective discharge of the disclosure and acknowledgement obligations? If property professionals assume a duty to discharge these obligations on behalf of property owners, should they face the same consequences as the owners, where they fail to do so?
37.Are there any other situations in which disclosure and acknowledgment should be required which might fall outside the proposed framework?
38.Do you think 30 days after receiving the first electricity bill is an appropriate time limit within which someone can dispute disclosure of the Green Deal?
39.Do you agree with the Government’s approach to allowing Green Deal providers to require early repayment in certain circumstances?

Re: Chapter 6: Consent, disclosure and acknowledgement
Consent. The Green Deal concept is straightforward in the context of freehold, owner occupied property. It becomes more complicated in rented property, because the consent of both the owner of the building and the energy bill payer are required; and more complicated still in multi occupied buildings where there may be a mixture of tenants and leaseholders all of whose consent is required to carry out works to communal areas (such as external cladding of a block of flats). The Government has not come up with a solution of how to deal with situations where not all residents may consent to works and has called for evidence and suggestions of possible solutions. Without a satisfactory solution it could prove hard to implement schemes in multi occupancy buildings where one or more residents oppose the scheme, on the other hand, there are substantial legal obstacles to imposing, in effect, a credit agreement upon someone without their consent,
