Sustainability in ORR - Meeting Greening Government Targets

Description

The objective of this work is produce a sustainability strategy for ORR. The key tasks are to: • understand ORR's baseline against the Greening Government Commitments 2021-25; • meet with up to five individuals/groups of individuals in ORR. This would be to understand the baseline, our own circumstances, and our wider role in rail and roads regulation. This may also involve putting questions to the landlord of our London office. • recommend an environmental strategy for ORR, at different levels of resource. In scope and exclusions The environmental strategy should apply to the whole organisation, subject to limitations in particular offices. Of ORR's six office locations, one is leased from a private landlord (London), whilst the others are small offices located within government hubs and buildings shared with other public sector bodies. Thus, the ORR has limited scope in the changes that it can make to its office space in order to reduce emissions. However, any proposals or ideas can be discussed with the relevant parties at each office, be they the 'host' department, Government Property Agency or property management agent.
