Climate Change Act 2022 Northern Ireland
The Northern Ireland Climate Change Act came into force in June 2022 and set out targets for net-zero emissions by 2050 and intermediate targets for 2030 and 2040.
The Climate Change Committee issued a report in early 2023 regarding the 2030 / 2040 interim targets, the first thee Carbon budgets set out in the Act (Northern Ireland) and how to achieve the targets. Later views were sought by Department for Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (DAERA) on the carbon targets, budgets and reporting approach that were set out in the Act. .A system of carbon budgeting and reporting is also established through this act.
