This report provided details of an update on the activities already undertaken and work currently underway towards establishing a Climate Change Action Plan, following the Council’s declaration of a climate change emergency in April 2019 and a subsequent report to Cabinet in July 2019. That report set out the Council’s aspirations and approach to the delivery of an Action Plan.
