▤ Verbatim text from source document

The UK has left the EU with the transition period coming to an end on 31 December 2020.

The proposals in this consultation cover the charges for duties the Environment Agency will do from 1 January 2021. This charging scheme is for recovering the costs of regulatory work to run a UK Emissions trading scheme.

The government has not yet confirmed if a UK Emissions trading scheme or Carbon emissions tax will operate from 1 January 2021. This consultation is necessary for the operation of either policy.

We will publish a consultation response document which will summarise the main themes. The new charges will take effect in England from April 2021.
