Estates and Facilities Management Forum Update on Required Reporting Template Clare Wharmby

Aims of Public Sector reporting What do we want to be able to do with the data? – Better understanding of the actual quantity and sources of emissions – Knowledge of targets relating to climate change and progress against these – Understand what projects are being undertaken and planned – Understand how the public sector is responding to adaptation challenges What do we want the public sector to do as a result of reporting the data? – Be able to report emissions data and project data confidently – Self-assess their progress towards targets and likelihood of meeting them – Explain what they are doing well and where they need to improve or need help

Reporting template model Required reporting section ALL sectors Recommended reporting section Sector specific LA NDPB+ FHEI NHS The model selected is to have a single common required section and then sector specific recommended sections The required section has been developed by a working group of CLOG members The recommended sections for each sector are being developed by sector representatives
