Answered by Emma Hardy
- Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs)
As stated in last year’s consultation on the proposal for HFC phasedown reform, the UK Government, in collaboration with the Scottish and Welsh Governments, is committed to further exploring areas for F gas reform considered out of scope of the consultation.
