<p>Accounting for the interests of future generations is a core consideration for
the government. For example, in June 2019 the UK became the first major economy to
legislate to end our net contribution to climate change by 2050. The government also
has planned spending on childcare support of £6bn in 2019-20 and a further £4.6bn
above inflation planned for schools by 2022-23.</p><p> </p><p>The government currently
uses the “Green Book” as a frameworks to potential interventions. In line with the
Green Book, decisions on all government programmes, projects or policies must be informed
by the costs, benefits and risks over the whole lifetime of the intervention, including
where its impact will affect future generations.</p>
