Environment Bill: consideration of Lords’ amendments

06 Oct 2021 | 100 kB PDF file
The Environment Bill will be debated in the House of Commons in late October.

This Environment Bill could be a vital tool to tackle the climate and nature emergencies we face. However, in order to fulfil this role, the bill must set out a new approach to environmental protections that is underpinned by a robust governance framework. In September, the House of Lords voted in favour of changes to the bill to ensure such a framework.
