| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Thank you. Ms O’Connell, your organisation, Green Alliance, has rightly pointed out that the construction sector is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions and that such an ambitious housing programme will have consequences for our emissions reduction targets. How best do you think those might be mitigated? In parti…” | 82 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Thank you for that. Dr Ellis, your association was asked by the Committee on Climate Change to do a piece of research with the CSE and you came back and said that most local plans are not fit for purpose when considering carbon emissions. You said that many of the local plans that are in production are not even conside…” | 69 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Professor Scott thank you for introducing the Dasgupta review into our conversation—Ny/α must be less than or equal to G(S). I think you are right: the whole model of inclusive wealth that Dasgupta is talking about must be the foundation for this. It is really good to have you saying that to this Committee and I hope w…” | 220 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Yes, and the mapping of excess deaths as a result of that—absolutely. The Sendai framework sets out four goals: understanding disaster risk, strengthening governance to manage it, investing in disaster risk reduction and resilience, and enhancing our preparedness and response and the whole principle of building back be…” | 91 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Could you perhaps write to the Committee with the good examples where this is done well in other jurisdictions and with the recommendations that you would like to see us make to implement that?” | 34 |

| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Professor Scott, you spoke about how the environment is siloed into chapter 15, in effect. This Committee is in the business of preparing a report and making recommendations to the Government. What recommendations would you like to see in that report that could overcome that siloing and ghettoisation of the environment…” | 88 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Let me put this back to Councillor Wright. What I was pushing for was more something about the regulatory powers that local authorities have and whether you feel that you require further powers to enforce the environmental protections properly when the NPPF comes in.” | 44 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Mr Stafford, do local authorities have the regulatory and legal powers that they need to ensure compliance?” | 17 |

| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Thank you very much. Councillor Wright, I would like to come back to you and perhaps also to Mr Stafford to talk about the resources that local authorities have, particularly if you look at what the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management has said about the availability of ecologists in planning dep…” | 110 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “That was the point of my questions earlier about the Sendai framework and disaster risk reduction. Would you like to see this Committee making recommendations on those things in its final report?” | 32 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Thank you. Finally, Dr Ellis, am I right in interpreting your earlier remarks that basically we should start with the national strategic spatial plan and work up from there—so working in one direction from the national strategic plan, and in the other from locally based plans coming up to meet it?” | 51 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Professor Scott thank you for introducing the Dasgupta review into our conversation—Ny/α must be less than or equal to G(S).

| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “To be clear, document Z, which I referred to, would set out the requirements for the assessment of whole-life carbon emissions and limit the embodied carbon emissions for all major building projects. Sophie O’Connell indicated assent.” | 36 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “And just to get your confirmation on the record, that is aligned with the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors professional statement, and it is endorsed by the Royal Institute of British Architects and the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers, yes?” | 41 |
| 20 Nov 2024 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (2024-11-20) “Thank you. Finally, Mr Breach, I know one of your research areas is the lessons we can learn from other cities around the world. You have done research into that, I think in Japan and other places, including Russia. Valencia has been in our focus over the past few weeks after it received 343 mm of rain—three quarters o…” | 111 |
