On 17th October 2023, the Bishop of Sheffield asked a question about the government’s climate financing commitments in advance of the COP 27 Conference:
The Lord Bishop of Sheffield: My Lords, it is reassuring to hear that the Government are confident of meeting the commitments made at COP 26 in relation to climate finance for adaptation and mitigation. Are the Government equally confident that commitments made at COP 27 in relation to the loss and damage fund will be not only met but made fully operational?
Lord Callanan (Con, Department for Energy Security and Net-Zero): As far as I know, we are fully committed to meeting those targets. We are very proud of our record and all the progress that we have made, including at least £3 billion on mitigating, protecting and restoring nature. We are on track to meet all our commitments.
