Proceeding contribution from Lord Howard of Lympne (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 13 December 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Climate Change: Cancun.


Climate Change: Cancun

My Lords, I congratulate my noble friend and the Government on their Statement. As someone who had the honour of representing the Government at the first earth summit in Rio in 1992, I well recollect how difficult these conferences can be. Now that the momentum lost at Copenhagen has to some extent been resumed as a result of the efforts which my noble friend has described, will he tell us a little more about what our Government, together with our partners in the European Union, intend to do between now and the Durban conference in order to maintain that momentum?
