Recommendation (the committee's words)
The UK Government should publish its own methane action plan to provide clarity on priority actions. This should include the costs of planned actions for different sectors and detail short- and long-term benefits, weighed against the costs of not taking action. The Government should focus on mitigation measures that will maximise impact relative to cost so that it can effectively prioritise its work.
