To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what recent progress his Department has made on preparing for COP30.
Katie White
Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)
Net Zero is the economic opportunity of the 21st Century – one that has the potential to reignite our industrial heartlands, create good jobs for the future, and lower Bills in the long term
We’re restoring the UK as a global leader on climate action and green growth, and you can expect to see the PM driving forward that agenda at COP30.
As he did last year at COP29, the Secretary of State will be leading the UK delegation in Brazil supported by myself and other Ministers. We will work with others to support multilateralism and push for maximal ambition.
