HIPs as a revenue raiser

Yes I know that the Energy Performance Certificate must be introduced by 2009 when it becomes mandatory under EU law and I (and others) have blogged previously about this government's incompetent implementation of the Home Information Pack. Something Ruth Kelly said in this week's debate that "The figures" of accredited inspectors "are changing rapidly as more and more energy assessors pass their exams, gain their qualifications and pay their dues to become fully accredited. However, they clearly need enough certainty in the system to part with the final £300, and we are not providing that certainty."

This got me thinking, how much is the government raising from the training of these inspectors?
