'Uncertain' if Welsh public sector can meet climate goal
Wales' spending watchdog has said it is unclear if the Welsh public sector will achieve a key climate change target.

The Welsh government aims to hit net zero carbon emissions by 2030.
But Audit Wales said only two of the 48 public bodies it had spoken to had worked out how much it would fully cost.
Auditor General for Wales Adrian Crompton said organisations need to do more, while the Welsh government said it would work with the public sector.
The net zero target does not mean eliminating greenhouse gas emissions, but instead balancing them with the amount of gases being removed from the atmosphere.
Audit Wales spoke to 48 public bodies, including the Welsh government, councils and health boards.
It said organisations were at "very different stages" in working up their plans to decarbonise, with over a third still making initial steps of drawing up proposals.
Only two had "fully assessed the financial implications" of meeting the 2030 target, while 31 said they had not.
Public bodies told auditors significant investment was going to be needed.
