Recommendation
The establishment of the UK Infrastructure Bank is a welcome development, given its specific mandate to help the UK to adapt to climate change. It is vital that this remains at the forefront of the Bank’s investment decisions, with adaptation projects prioritised as much as those targeted towards mitigation and/or regional economic growth. We recommend that the UKIB’s annual report outlines specifically how the Bank has met its adaptation objectives, including projects that will enhance UK CNI’s resilience to the effects of climate change and extreme weather.
