The table also lists several core LEDS elements that could meet the purposes identified, which are discussed in further detail in Section 3.2. The process of establishing a LEDS can enhance co-ordination across different ministries and communication with other stakeholder groups such as businesses and civil society, and also increase public awareness of climate change science and policy. A LEDS can help guide diversification of an economy (e.g. from a fossil-fuel basis). Clarification on economic development and climate change priorities, including plans for domestic clean energy technologies, can in turn help provide early signals to investors in the private sector as well as for new possible directions for research and development (although this ultimately depends on how a LEDS is implemented).
