Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what his timescale is for the publication of the Green Finance Strategy.

Green Finance is a key priority for the Government - to support delivery of our ambitious Clean Growth Strategy, to drive economic growth as part of our Industrial Strategy, and to ensure the UK remains a key driving force in enabling the global transition to a low carbon economy.  We have already taken action to respond to the recommendations of the Green Finance Taskforce. This includes announcing the establishment of the Green Finance Institute. We will be publishing our Green Finance Strategy in due course.
