Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of (1) the ecological damage caused by the war in Ukraine, and (2) how that damage contributes to the global ecological crisis; and how they are planning to address this at the upcoming COP 28 in December.

It has not proved possible to respond to this question in the time available before Prorogation. Ministers will correspond directly with the noble Lord.
