Recommendation 20

We recommend that a just transition plan: a) be published by the end of 2021; b) assess regional as well as sectoral impact, to ensure regional skills transitioning plus employment and pensions support is in place; and c) include a strategy for maintaining public support for net zero. As cross-departmental action is required, this plan should set out the departments or bodies co-ordinating just transition action and each department’s responsibilities, alongside plans for monitoring progress and co-ordinating with local authorities and the devolved administrations. The just transition plan should also include plans for stimulating replacement jobs in green sectors less directly related to net zero, such as nature and the circular economy.
