Book Description
The Environmental Audit Committee was set up by the House of Commons in 1997 reflecting a Manifesto commitment by the incoming Labour Government. This report from the Committee takes stock of how effective the environmental audit of government has been and draws conclusions on the performance of both the government and the work of the Committee. The impact of the Committee and follow up work is given as an annex to the report. The overall view taken is that the government has a long way to go on the expectations it has raised on the environment and sustainable development. Firstly, the government has set few targets. It needs to set measurable targets, i.e. with a baseline, milestones and responsibilities for reporting and to inject some rigour into the reporting requirements of its departments, agencies and associated public bodies. Secondly, for the parliamentary environmental audit initiative to be properly effective, an independent environmental audit facility should be set up. The Committee does not have the resources to undertake this role. The report recommends that an environmental auditor general should be established within the National Audit Office, mirroring arrangements for performance audit of public spending. A draft Bill to this effect follows the report. The report also recommends that the government works with international organisations to make 'measuring national performance' a theme of reporting progress on Agenda 21 at Rio+10 in 2002 and, to contribute to the examination of how best to measure progress on sustainable development.
