<p>The UK has a world-leading record in tackling climate change. We are rightly proud
of our performance against our carbon targets, having overperformed for the second
time, leading us to cut our emissions faster than any G7 country. We remain firmly
committed to tackling the threat of climate change and to meeting our future carbon
targets through the ambitious plans and policies set out in the Clean Growth Strategy.</p><p>
</p><p>The decision to reserve part of the second carbon budget is a technical one
which does not impact the Government’s commitment to taking strong domestic action
to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and tackle climate change.</p><p> </p><p>The Government
has deposited letters in the Libraries of the House confirming its decision.</p>
