<p>National planning policies already recognise the importance of sustainable development,
and make clear that reducing carbon emissions should be considered in plan and decision

our commitment to reaching net zero, including through the planning reform programme
and the forthcoming Planning Bill. Our response to the Planning for the Future White
Paper, setting out next steps on these reforms, will be published in due course.</p>
