Climate Change

Question: To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answers by Lord Marland on 13 December 2010 (WA 110) and on 16 February 2011 (WA 164–5) on the cost of sending the United Kingdom delegation to the 2010 United Nations Climate Change Conference, how much they have budgeted for their participation at the 2011 United Nations Climate Change Conference; and whether this is more or less than the cost of participating at the 2010 United Nations Climate Change Conference.

Answer: DECC will make public the cost of sending the UK delegation to the 2011 United Nations Climate Change Conference once figures have been finalised. This will be via publication on the department's website, as was the case following the 2010 United Nations Climate Change Conference. The department has made every effort to ensure that the cost of sending the UK delegation to the 2011 conference is less than the cost of the 2010 conference (which was £355,701).
