Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, when the Government plans to bring forward its planned consultation on the implementation of a net-zero-consistent cap for the UK emissions trading scheme.
As set out in November’s Net Zero Strategy we will consult in the coming months on an appropriate cap consistent with net zero. The cap will be aligned with a net zero consistent trajectory by January 2024 at the latest.
