To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he has made an assessment of the implications for his policies of the approach taken by BlackRock to Zambian debt.
Zambia is one of three countries to have requested a debt treatment under the Common Framework. The Common Framework was agreed in November 2020 by the UK, along with the G20 and Paris Club, to help deliver a long-term, sustainable approach for supporting low-income countries to tackle their debt vulnerabilities.
Private sector participation in the Common Framework is critical.
