The Green Jobs Taskforce forms part of the Government’s ambitious plan to build back greener and achieve net zero emissions by 2050, which will require action across Government.

Ministers and officials engage regularly with other departments, including counterparts at the Department for Transport, on tackling climate change and delivering our net zero commitments. Department for Transport officials have been involved in cross-Government discussions to support the work of the Taskforce. We will continue to work together across Government as the work of the Taskforce progresses.
