The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment she has made of the implications for her Department’s policies of section 7.6 of the Climate Change Committee's Seventh Carbon Budget on aviation, published on 26 February 2025.

Answered by James Murray

In line with the Climate Change Act 2008, the Government will respond to the Climate Change Committee’s Seventh Carbon Budget Advice and set the seventh carbon budget in law by 30 June 2026.

The Government will set out policies to support delivery of the seventh carbon budget as soon as reasonably practicable after this.
