Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what assessment he has made of the implications for his policies on the UK reaching net zero by 2050 of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's sixth assessment report.
The Government has committed to reaching net zero by 2050. This is in line with the advice of the UK’s independent Climate Change Committee and is consistent with the findings of the IPCC’s Sixth Assessment Report.
The Government's recently published Powering Up Britain publication, the Net Zero Growth Plan sets out the policy package to meet Carbon Budgets and the Government's roadmap to net zero.
