Sectoral Emissions Ceilings: Discussion

Mr. Dale Crammond:

I do not. We have set out very clearly the measures that are in the climate action plan. We have also clearly explained the sort of additional measures that the sector is going to need to take to bring us into that range. However, it is impossible to say just at the moment where ultimately the level of mitigation will be because there is so much uncertainty.

We do not know whether we will get the 30% reduction in methane from developing that feed additive; it may be only 20%. There is still a lot of uncertainty.
