Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to follow the EU’s new energy policy directive of promoting the use of wood as a renewable fuel after Brexit.
The UK is committed to maintaining affordable, clean and secure energy supplies for businesses and households, and we recognise the potential of bioenergy in meeting these aims.
The Government is currently in EU Exit negotiations and details of the nature of EU Exit arrangements will be announced in due course.
