<p>DFID is fully supporting the Government’s preparations to ensure that the UK leaves
the EU on 31 October. At the same time, as the Prime Minister made clear at the recent
G7 Leaders meeting, the UK is strongly committed to tackling the two immense threats
of climate change and biodiversity loss. Putting climate change and environment at
the heart of our development programming is a high priority for DFID. While we have,
since July 2019, deployed a small number of staff (fewer than 5) who were working
on climate change to work on planning for our exit from the EU, overall the number
of staff working on climate change is increasing.</p>
