CCRA3 Evidence Report Technical Chapters

Descriptions

The Adaptation Sub-Committee (ASC) of the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) is the government's statutory adviser on preparing for climate change. Under the Climate Change Act (2008) the ASC has two main roles: •To provide independent, expert advice on the UK climate change risk assessment (CCRA). •To report to Parliament on progress with implementation of the National Adaptation Programme (England only). To do this the ASC conducts independent analysis into climate change science, economics and policy, and engages with a wide range of organisations and individuals to share evidence and analysis. The CCC and ASC's past reports are available at http://www.theccc.org.uk/publications/. To inform the ASC's Evidence Report for the third UK CCRA, the ASC is commissioning through this contract a consortium of experts to undertake relevant analysis and draft the technical chapters for the Report. *** See Specification for further details ***
