Space
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what steps she is taking with his international counterparts to encourage sustainable uses of space.
Answered by Kanishka Narayan
The government works bilaterally and multilaterally with international partners through the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space and the Inter-Agency Space Debris Coordination Committee to shape and uphold standards, norms and best practices that define the in-orbit regime. We champion adoption of the UN Long-Term Sustainability Guidelines and support capacity-building via the UN Office for Outer Space Affairs to protect access to space for future generations.
