In the future, the government should look into making solar panels compulsory in all new housing developments, however there is too much variation in existing housing to make this compulsory. # ALTERNATIVE NAME 2: Statement 2 - In new houses, the government should require solar panels and in existing houses, the government should offer a free grant to help them buy them. # ALTERNATIVE NAME 3: Statement 3 - In general, the group was in favour of solar panels, however they thought that government should provide financial assistance to support people in their efforts. # ALTERNATIVE NAME 4: Statement 4 - All houses should have solar panels but only if there are government grants or payments to allow it to happen.
