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

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, which body is planned to enforce regulations governing the release of F-gases after the UK has left the EU; and whether the Government plans for there to be any role for the proposed new environmental watchdog in such enforcement.

In England, the Environment Agency will continue to enforce the requirements of the F-Gas regulations after the UK has left the EU.

The proposed new body is not intended to be a delivery body responsible for the operational implementation and enforcement of individual regulations.
