Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what funding he is making available to help the public sector estate become carbon neutral.
The recent spending review allocated more than £1.4 billion to the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) to help reduce emissions from the public sector estate over the next 3 years.
This funding builds on the £1 billion already invested in the PSDS since March 2020. It also does not account for additional investments government department’s will be making to decarbonise their respective estates independently of the PSDS as part of ongoing maintenance.
