The Green New Deal Group acts as the secretariat for the All Party Parliamentary Group on the Green New Deal. The APPG exists to provide a cross-party platform for the development of a transformative Green New Deal for the UK, through discussion and collaboration.
Meeting since early 2007, the membership of the Green New Deal Group is drawn to reflect a wide range of expertise relating to economics and politics, and the climate, nature and inequality crises. The views and recommendations of the Green New Deal Group set out in a series of reports starting in 2008, are those of the group writing in their individual capacities.
