Oral Answers to Questions

Adam Thompson Excerpts

Tuesday 22nd October 2024 Commons Chamber

[Hamish Falconer]

I referred to our actions against Iran in the region, and the importance of removing its influence in Lebanon as best we can. This week I will attend the Lebanon conference in Paris, where these matters will be discussed.

T7. Further to the question from across the way on climate change, what steps is the Minister taking to support climate change development internationally?

[Anneliese Dodds]

My hon. Friend raises an incredibly important point. It is critical that the UK can speak with credibility on these issues—and now, under the new UK Government, we can, given the creation of GB Energy and the other measures that we have taken. We are ensuring that climate leadership is always to the fore, including in the conferences of the parties. Of course, the COP nature summit in Colombia is fast approaching.
