Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, when the UK will submit its mid-century low greenhouse gas emission development strategy to the UN as required under Article 4, paragraph 19, of the Paris Agreement on climate change.

The UK has committed to submit a mid-century low greenhouse gas emission strategy to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change well ahead of the 2020 deadline. We are currently working towards our emissions reduction plan, which will set out how the UK intends to remain on course for meeting its legally binding target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80% by 2050.
