Kerry McCarthy – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department for International Development

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Kerry McCarthy on 2014-07-16.

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, when the Government plans to announce the UK’s contribution to the Green Climate Fund; and whether that contribution will be, proportionately, in accord with the funding being sought by the Fund for its initial resource mobilisation.

Lynne Featherstone

The UK government considers all resource mobilisations in terms of impact and value for money for the British taxpayer. Any announcements are timed to encourage international donors to step up to the plate.
