Developing Countries: Climate Change

Asked by Jim ShannonDemocratic Unionist PartyForeign, Commonwealth and Development OfficeTabled Answered 24 June 2026UIN 11642

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps she is taking to support climate adaptation and resilience in vulnerable countries.

Answered by Chris Elmore

The issues raised in the Hon Member's questions are among the most important humanitarian and development priorities for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), but our work on them cannot adequately be summarised in the answer to one parliamentary question. However, the Hon Member can find regular updates about that work by following the FCDO news feed on GOV.UK, and by continuing to attend our statements, oral questions sessions and urgent question responses in the House.
