DECC is often contacted by groups wishing to contribute a view, highlight an issue or petition on a particular policy. On this page you can read responses to these campaigns from the Secretary of State past and present. We provide a single response addressed to the originating organisation, which we suggest can be published on their own website.

Older responses can be found on the National Archive.
