Written Question
Wales Office: Climate Change
Thursday 23rd January 2020

Asked by: Darren Jones (Labour - Bristol North West)

Question to the Wales Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what assessment he has made of the effect of climate change on the work of his Department; and what steps he is taking in response to that effect.

Answered by David T C Davies - Secretary of State for Wales

Achieving net zero is a priority for the whole of government, which is why the Prime Minister is chairing a new Cabinet Committee on Climate Change to drive action across all sectors of the economy and demonstrates the UK’s global leadership as we prepare to host the crucial COP26 talks in Glasgow in November.

The Office of the Secretary of State for Wales (OSSW) is committed to tackling climate change and delivering our world-leading net zero target. We are focused on reducing our greenhouse gas emissions and report our progress in doing so in the Office’s Annual Report and Accounts. We are committed to working with other government departments in delivering on the Greening Government Commitments.
