English Devolution and Community Empowerment BillContribution
On Amendment 141B in the name of the noble Baroness, Lady Freeman, it was less than a month ago that the Office for Environmental Protection said that seven out of 10 targets for wildlife are likely to be missed by 2030. Those are legal requirements on the Government. Surely the Government have to ensure in the Bill a commitment and a direction of travel, to ensure that we are heading in the direction in which they are legally obliged to head.
