46:05Now PlayingPrime Minister Rishi Sunak delivers a speech after a leak on September 19 revealed his plans to row back on some net zero policies, including delaying the UK's switch to electric cars by five years.
His move to weaken key climate pledges has drawn heavy criticism from Tory MPs and environmental groups.
The report - which Sky News understands to be correct - has sparked anger among Tory MPs, with one saying they are "seriously considering" a no-confidence letter.
However, in a rare statement on Tuesday night, Mr Sunak said: "No leak will stop me beginning the process of telling the country how and why we need to change.
"As a first step, I'll be giving a speech this week to set out an important long-term decision we need to make so our country becomes the place I know we all want it to be for our children."
