Proceeding contribution from Joan Walley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 November 2009. It occurred during Debate on Climate Change.


Climate Change

Deforestation is critical in getting an overall agreement. I was therefore disturbed to read reports in the media a couple of weeks ago that the European negotiating position would be not to support the removal of palm oil in plantations. I understand that is not the case. I would be grateful if my right hon. Friend would put the record straight, so that we know what position Europe is taking in the negotiations on forests.
