Among the changes being considering are the pushing back of a ban on the sales of new vehicles with internal combustion engines (ICE) from 2030 to 2035 - and a weakening of plans to phase out gas boilers by 2035.

Former environment and finance minister Sammy Wilson has said that the Prime Minister rolling back on a boiler ban is a major win for Northern Ireland.
