Recommendation (the committee's words)
As already recommended, the Government must immediately consult local government on the contents of a draft net zero delivery framework setting out the relative roles and responsibilities of local and central government. It must also commit to properly funding local authority climate action and provide assurance that the UK Shared Prosperity Fund will be able to fund schemes of the kind currently funded through the European Regional Development Fund.
