▤ Verbatim text from source document

We want to know what you think about our proposed approach for deciding the ‘Best Available Techniques’ (BAT) for tackling industrial emissions following the UK’s exit from the EU. We intend to work openly with industry, using evidence to develop BAT which will be used in environmental permitting for certain industrial activities.

We would particularly like to hear your views on:

  • the proposed organisation and governance process
  • public participation
  • scrutiny
  • policies on implementing BAT
  • how the process will be evaluated
