Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to support the UK–Brazil Partnership on Green and Inclusive Growth announced on 24 May; and whether they endorse the initial five main pillars of the agreement relating to climate, forests, agriculture, energy and finance.

The UK government wants to strengthen our long-standing cooperation with Brazil on climate, energy, and nature. We are proud to be the third biggest contributor of climate finance to Brazil and are boosting our relationships with Brazilian ministers and officials. Last month, the Secretary of State for Energy and Net Zero visited Brazil and underlined the UK's ongoing commitment to work with the Brazilian government to realise our shared ambition on climate mitigation, finance, deforestation, and energy transition. The subsequent joint statement reaffirmed our collective desire to strengthen collaboration, including under the existing UK-Brazil Partnership for Green and Inclusive Growth and committed us to develop a Bilateral Strategic Dialogue on Climate.
