Consultation process
Overview and Scrutiny Management Committee at
its meeting held on 19 March 2019 asked Environment Select
Committee to form a task group to develop recommendations and a
plan to achieve making the county of Wiltshire carbon neutral by
2030 along with undertaking a carbon and renewables audit.
Environment select committee was also asked to agree parameters
with the relevant Cabinet member or portfolio holder that represent
the council impact on the environment and can be accurately
reported to council on a regular basis, to potentially include
those measures suggested in the motion to full Council.
