Ministerial Visits

Question
What visits he has undertaken while deputising for the Prime Minister on international issues; and if he will make a statement.
Answer

In addition to those visits I announced to the House on 7 March on behalf of the Prime Minister, I recently visited the Czech Republic and Malta to discuss with their leaderships the issue of climate change and other European matters. I held a number of bilateral meetings with the Prime Ministers and deputy Prime Ministers of both countries, and with the President of Malta. I addressed and debated the issue with an audience of politicians, some of them Cabinet members, academics and senior industry figures. I also gave a speech at the British Council’s youth forum seminar on climate change.
