There is a potential gap in the scope of the Climate Action and Low Carbon Development (Amendment) Bill 2020: green public procurement. Making GPP mandatory is a Programme of Government commitment. So why not do this in the Climate Action Bill in respect of all tenders valued over the prevailing EU threshold? GPP is the most sustainable, quickest, cost effective and most efficient way to drive down GHG emissions and to improve energy efficiency.
