The Government does not limit the applicability of provisions in the Environment chapters of FTAs that the UK negotiates to the UK’s central level of Government. Therefore, in the Environment chapter of the AUS FTA, provisions on the environment apply across the UK, including to the Devolved Administrations. The Government recognises the importance of FTA chapter applicability being the same for the UK and our negotiating partner and this was the outcome in the agreement with New Zealand. The Government will seek similar commitments and provisions in future FTAs. The UK has published its approach to specific future FTAs, including on environment, online.
