Amendment 1—Darren Millar

Delete points 5 and 6 and replace with:

Welcomes the leading role the UK has played working towards a global deal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through the Paris Agreement and notes that since 1990, the UK has cut emissions by more than 40 per cent while growing the economy by more than two thirds, the best performance on a per person basis than any other G7 nation.

Regrets that emissions in Wales only fell by 19 per cent during the period between 1990 to 2015 and calls on the Welsh Government to work with local authorities and the UK Government to ensure that new legally-binding carbon emissions targets are met moving forward in Wales.
