My right hon. Friend Andy Burnham, Secretary of State for Health fully supports the 10:10 campaign, and the Department has reduced its carbon emissions by over 17 per cent. since 1999-2000. We are working closely with the Carbon Trust to identify measures that will further improve our performance. The Department has recently issued 2010-11 business planning guidance to its arm's length bodies (ALBs), requiring them to produce climate change plans, and we will encourage them to do this during 2010-11.
