Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether the pledge in the Industrial Strategy to protect and enhance all aspects of Natural Capital will also apply to Natural Capital in other countries that will be potentially affected by UK decisions.

We will set out the Government’s proposals to develop our lead in protecting and improving the global environment, drawing on the principle of Natural Capital, in our forthcoming 25 Year Environment Plan.
