Proceeding contribution from Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 May 2019. It occurred during Opposition day on Environment and Climate Change.
Environment and Climate Change
Does my right hon. Friend agree that part of any new deal for nature—it has been much discussed, and I hope it will be discussed again today—should be a significant shift in DFID’s spending such that a much greater proportion of its money is spent on protecting and restoring the natural world, as a means of preventing base poverty and alleviating poverty?
