Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, if he will make it his policy to establish an Office for Net Zero.

The creation of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero means there is a department dedicated to delivering the Government’s climate ambitions and a senior ministerial voice in Cabinet whose focus, alongside energy security, is driving overall delivery of net zero across government and maximising the economic opportunity the transition presents.

The Department’s officials work closely with counterparts across government to coordinate action, particularly with Cabinet Office and HM Treasury to ensure that net zero is prioritised and aligns with other priorities.
