Ministerial CorrectionsI wonder whether the Minister will today commit to auditing and publishing UK aid spending on fossil fuels through the CDC, the prosperity fund and multilateral organisations?
I am pretty sure that a lot of that information is already in the public domain. I can confirm to the hon. Gentleman my understanding that the CDC has made no new investments in fossil fuels since 2012.

Letter of correction from the Minister of State, Department for International Development:
An error has been identified in my response to the hon. Member for Liverpool, Walton (Dan Carden).
The correct response should have been:
I am pretty sure that a lot of that information is already in the public domain. I can confirm to the hon. Gentleman that the CDC has made no new investments in coal since 2012.
