<p>COP26 Devolved Administrations Ministers Meetings, which I chair, have formally
convened five times. Communiqués from these meetings can be found on GOV.UK. The Welsh
Government Minister for Climate Change has been present at these meetings.</p><p>
</p><p>Energy policy, including energy efficiency, falls within the remit of the Department
for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS). With support from the devolved
administrations, BEIS established an Inter-Ministerial Group (IMG) that is responsible
for discussing Net Zero, Energy and Climate Change. This aims to meet every two months
and brings together Ministers from the four administrations to discuss emission reduction
efforts across the UK. This intergovernmental engagement on net zero will continue
to facilitate collaboration and coordination across devolved and reserved competence,
ensuring we are delivering effectively for all parts of the UK.</p><p> </p><p>We are
committed to working with the devolved administrations to achieve our shared goals
of leading the charge against climate change.</p><p> </p>
