Statement by the Deputy Minister for Climate Change: The Roads Review and National Transport Delivery Plan
Diolch, Weinidog. I would have hoped that everyone in the Chamber would agree that addressing climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. The science is clear: if we don't take bold action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we will have no…
