Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what discussions the UK–Brazil Joint Economic and Trade Committee has had on cooperation on nature markets and carbon finance.

The UK-Brazil Joint Agricultural Committee, led by Defra, engages in discussions relating to sustainable agriculture. Recent discussions have covered topics including green fertiliser partnerships and collaboration on agricultural technologies. The UK and Brazil also have a number of bilateral initiatives on green finance, some of which sit under the UK PACT (Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions) programme.
