In addition to the BEIS dataset that covers the entire public sector, Defra publishes an annual progress report for the Greening Government Commitments (GGCs). Alongside the government’s other environmental measures, this shows the progress made by central government departments and their arm’s-length bodies in reducing their scope 1 and 2 emissions, as well as emissions from business travel which fall under scope 3.9 The latest set of GGC targets cover the period 2021–25 however BEIS was unable to confirm whether the targets were sufficient to put government on target to meet its longer-term emissions reduction ambitions set for 2032 and 2037.10 Neither BEIS nor Defra seem to take action when departments fail to meet their GGC targets. BEIS and Defra regard transparent reporting in the public domain as a sufficient mechanism to secure accountability.11
