<p>At the 24th Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate
Change (UNFCCC), the UK is committed to bringing the Paris Agreement to life by agreeing
a robust set of rules that will support its implementation, and to encourage ambitious
action globally. As part of this, we will be supporting a Talanoa Dialogue that results
in a firm commitment that all countries will review and update their Nationally Determined
Contributions in light of discussions and latest science.</p><p>The UK’s deep commitment
to tackling climate change will be unchanged by EU Exit. The UK will continue to be
a leader on both domestic and international climate action, backed up by our strong
domestic legislation and international climate finance commitments. Working with our
European partners will remain very important and the UK will continue to engage strongly
and proactively with multilateral groupings such as the G7, G20 and the Commonwealth.
We have strong relationships with a broad range of Parties in the UNFCCC, including
through progressive alliances such as the High Ambition Coalition and the Cartagena
Dialogue. Furthermore, we continue to support others to implement the Paris Agreement.
The UK will provide at least £5.8bn in climate finance from 2016-2020, providing support
for adaptation, mitigation, technical assistance and capacity building.</p><p> </p>
