Conclusion
We welcome the ambition to conclude talks on an Emissions Trading Scheme agreement by the time of the 2026 UK-EU summit. Linking UK-EU Emissions Trading Schemes will deliver mutual benefits to businesses. Mutual Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) waivers will also support trade in emission-intensive sectors and support joint progress towards environmental commitments and greenhouse gas reductions. (Conclusion, Paragraph 25)
