The role of public sector bodies in tackling climate change: consultation

Annex B: Public Sector Bodies currently required to report

180 Public Sector Bodies are currently required to submit annual reports on their climate change activity. They can be divided into the following categories:

• Educational institutions
• Integration Joint Boards
• Local government
• National Health Services
• Transport Partnerships 
• Others

In 2011, the Scottish Government set out an expectation that some Public Sector Bodies should be particularly ambitious with regard to climate change action (Public Bodies Climate Change Duties: putting them into practice https://www.gov.scot/publications/public-bodies-climate-change-duties-putting-practice-guidance-required-part/).  This guidance defined ‘major players’ as bodies with large estates and/or staff numbers, high impact and influence, large expenditure, or those with an auditing or regulatory function. The 2015 Order introduced “Listed bodies” who would be explicitly required to report.
