Philip Dunne asks the President of COP26 if he believes the current structure of Government is adequate to ensure that, at every level, the UK Government is focused on delivering a more ambitious net zero target for the next major climate conference, COP27.

Does my right hon. Friend believe that the current structure of Government is adequate to ensure that the UK can deliver a more ambitious nationally determined contribution at COP27?

Alok Sharma (The COP26 President)

The make-up and structure of the Government are obviously a matter for the Prime Minister—I know my right hon. Friend will have raised that issue at the Liaison Committee—but our current NDC is aligned to net zero.
