Industry groups working with Gov to build environmental policy framework

The Broadway Initiative is a consortium made up of a range of business, environmental, academic and professional groups to publish a shared view of how the Government’s planned Environmental Bill can ‘put sustainability at the heart of our economic model’.

CLA president Tim Breitmeyer said the Initiative’s emphasis on creating long-term collaborative policymaking would transcend political cycles, policy areas and ‘the traditional fault lines of competing interests’.

The aim is to advise Government on how to enable all parts of society to play their part in achieving long-term objectives for the environment, while meeting society’s needs for food, infrastructure, energy, and products and services.
