Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what her Department's contribution is to the Government's emissions reduction plan; and if she will make a statement.

Defra is working with DECC towards the Government’s Emissions Reduction Plan. This will be the successor to the 2011 Carbon Plan, which is available at:

www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-carbon-plan-reducing-greenhouse-gas-emissions--2.

The Plan will set out our policies and proposals for meeting the UK’s carbon budgets.
