Progress on Carbon Budgets

Status: Closed Opened: 15 Mar 2013 Closed: 11 Dec 2013

Inquiry scope

In its recent report, the Committee followed up its 2011 report on carbon budgets. The inquiry will examine whether the emissions reduction targets in the Climate Change Act (which underpin the UK carbon budgets) are still valid as an appropriate UK contribution to avoiding dangerous global climate change, the operation and management of the carbon budgets within government and what the Government’s response should be for its overall carbon budgets in the light of the Committee on Climate Change’s (June 2013) assessment of UK emissions reduction performance.
