The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for International Development
No decision has yet been taken on what proportion of the new funding for climate change projects in developing countries will be used to tackle deforestation and reduce forest degradation. The funding will be shared between DFID, the Department of Energy and Climate Change and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and discussions will take place between these Departments in the coming months.
