Written Question
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Tuesday 16th March 2021

Asked by: Baroness Worthington (Crossbench - Life peer)

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

To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to review regulations regarding fluorinated gas ahead of COP26.

Answered by Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park

The UK has a legal requirement to review the Fluorinated Gas (F gas) Regulation and publish a comprehensive report of this review by no later than 31 December 2022. Defra is now beginning internal work on the review and intends to engage with stakeholders on this work later this year. The review will include an assessment of opportunities for faster and further action on phasing down F gases, beyond our already world leading measures, to help meet the Government’s net zero 2050 target.
