answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/05/2019 answer text <p>Action to avert, minimize and address loss and damage associated with climate change is intricately bound up with action on mitigation, adaptation, disaster risk reduction and disaster preparedness and response. We therefore do not see that attempting to define a separate category of finance for loss and damage as useful or practical. Of the £5.8bn on climate finance we have committed to spend from 2016-2021 the UK aims to spend 50% on adaptation and 50% on mitigation.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 21/05/2019 16:48:42 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
