(b) to improve the thermal performance of a building to which this Policy applies.

(2) If the development concerned involves:

(a) the erection of a building for both residential and non-residential purposes, or

(b) the alteration, enlargement or extension of a building that is intended to be used for both residential and non-residential purposes, or

(c) the change of use of a building to both residential and non-residential purposes,
