     Edited Summary of Performance against Greening Government Commitments, Ambition 1. Objective now reads ‘Only procure from suppliers who have committed to science based targets (SBTs) for high value procurements.’ Edited DWP total footprint due to previous error in the data. DWP total footprint is now 2,579 tonnes CO2e. This has reduced the total government footprint to 340,000 tonnes CO2e. This figure has been updated throughout the report, and any calculations adjusted. The update is reflected in Figures 2, 3 and 4 as well as Table 1. Edited Figure 4 to correct a data error where on premise data centres were categorised as Scope 2 emissions, not Scope 3.
