Heads of Climate Action and Low Carbon Development Bill 2013: Discussion

5:35 pm

Dr. Brian Ó Gallachóir:

It is interesting to consider the UK's approach in this regard. The UK has legislated based on a target and it has five-yearly carbon budgets, with annual reporting in respect of these. In that respect, the UK authorities can take account of changes as they occur and then readjust their strategy to achieve the overall goal.
