CCC Monitoring Framework

Assessing UK progress in reducing emissions

The UK, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have ambitious targets to reduce emissions. Now the priority is to deliver against these targets. This shift in focus, from ambition to delivery, is the basis of our new Monitoring Framework, which sets out our updated approach to tracking UK progress.

This is an evolving framework, and we will continue to update our approach over time, including as targets change, when new data becomes available, and after major Government decarbonisation strategies. We welcome feedback and suggestions.

Chris Stark, Chief Executive of the Climate Change Committee sets out the basis of our new Monitoring Framework, which sets out our updated approach to tracking UK progress.
