Question to the Scotland Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, what steps his Department is taking to contribute to efforts to reduce carbon emissions.

The Scotland Office is committed to reducing emissions and energy consumption to reduce costs. Greenhouse gas emissions are published annually in the Greening Government Commitments Annual Reports.

The Government's recently published British Energy Security Strategy will protect the UK from price spikes in the future by accelerating our move towards cleaner, cheaper, home-grown energy.
