COP26: Devolved Administrations

Proceeding contribution from Nick Fletcher (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 September 2021. It occurred during Backbench debate on COP26: Devolved Administrations.

Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker.

We reduced our emissions by a significant 44% between 1990 and 2019. The speed at which we have managed to decarbonise our electric grid is just one example: a decade ago, 40% per cent of our electricity came from coal; it is now a mere 1.8%. Under this Government, this country is embarking on an ambitious industrial revolution that will help to transform the lives of people up and down the country, no matter which nation they belong to.
