Climate change delivery: improvement report
This improvement plan is in response to the Environmental Standards Scotland Investigation into climate change delivery, and sets out actions the Scottish Government will take in relation to the reporting of scope 3 emissions for local authorities in Scotland.
Reviewing and monitoring
Domestic Climate Change Division within SG will be responsible for implementing and monitoring progress of the above actions.
Progress on the implementation of the actions will be reported to and overseen by SG’s Global Climate Emergency Programme Board.
Conclusion
In response to the ESS Investigation Report (ESS.21.012), this Improvement Plan proposes a proportionate and phased approach to introducing the reporting of scope 3 emissions by LAs. The proposed actions will add value to the current reporting framework, enhance the information gathered by LAs, and help LAs identify actions that can be taken to reduce their GHG emission impact.
