What consideration has the Cabinet Secretary given to the recommendation by the UK Climate Change Committee that people should consume less red meat and dairy products in the May 2025 report on Wales' Fourth Carbon Budget?
Answered by Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs | Answered on 10/06/2025
We are reviewing the UK Climate Change Committee’s (UKCCC) advice carefully and will use it to inform the setting of our fourth Carbon Budget recommendations (2031-35) in regulations before the end of the year. In 2026, the next Welsh Government will publish its plan for meeting Carbon Budget 3 (2026-30), which has also been informed by the UK CCC’s advice.
