Question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what next steps his Department plans to take following its consultation on the UK Green Taxonomy.

Answer

The 2023 Green Finance Strategy set out the Government’s commitment to deliver a UK Green Taxonomy. This will support the quality of standards, labels and disclosures used in the industry for green finance activity. We expect to consult on the Taxonomy in Autumn 2023.

Following the consultation, we will analyse responses and provide a government response in accordance with Cabinet Office consultation principles, with a view to finalising the Taxonomy.
