Synopsis

Scottish Ministers are currently refusing to produce the full climate impact assessment of the carbon emissions expected to be generated by their £26bn Infrastructure Investment Plan – crucial to their pledge to reach net zero by 2045. The Environmental Rights Centre for Scotland (ERCS) and Good Law Project have now warned the Scottish Government that court proceedings could be on the cards if these figures are not revealed to the public.
