Decision: Noted the report and commended it to full Council (meeting on 8 October 2024) in recognition of the Council’s current carbon emissions and climate change status. Reason(s): The Climate Change Board is constitutionally a working group of the Executive and is required to report on its business and achievements to the Executive at least annually. On 23 July 2024, full Council adopted a new Corporate Strategy that included a ‘more sustainable borough’ at Priority 1 and once again reinforced this Council’s commitment to reaching net zero by 2030. For this reason, the Executive is asked to refer the report to full Council for its wider circulation, engagement, and comment. Other options considered and rejected by the Executive: None. Details of any conflict of interest declared by the Leader or lead councillors and any dispensation granted: None.
