Public organizations in Scotland may have to provide reports on energy and climate change

A range of public organizations such as the NHS, local authorities and educational institutions in Scotland could be required to report on climate change under new plans set out by the Scottish Government, a recent news report into this matter has been able to reveal.

The Government’s consultation is seeking views on introducing a standard reporting form, the impact of the changes in reporting climate change performance and how reports should be annually monitored.

If approved, around 150 large public bodies including the Scottish Government would have to report on climate change.

Scotland’s Climate Change Minister Aileen McLeod said: “The introduction of required reporting is one area where we have the power to do more to tackle climate change. This is why we are seeking views on standardising reporting for public sector bodies to enable consistent standards, continuous improvement and transparency within the public sector.”
