PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Greenhouse Gas Emissions (6 February 2020)

Question Asked

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what recent progress his Department has made on its review into funding the transition to a net zero greenhouse gas economy.

Asked by:
Charlotte Nichols (Labour)

Answer

In November 2019, HM Treasury published terms of reference for its review into how the transition to a net zero economy will be funded, and where the costs will fall.

The review will ensure contributions are fair between households, businesses and the taxpayer, and will allow us to maximise economic growth opportunities from the transition.

The review will publish its findings in Autumn 2020.
