To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what initiatives Her Majesty's Government will be proposing at the G7 summit in July to assist developing countries to adapt to global climate change and a rise in the sea level.

125. Ms. Short

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what initiatives Her Majesty's Government will be proposing at the G7 summit in July to help developing countries implement policies to reduce the growth rate of carbon emissions.

Mrs. Chalker

The summit is an informal meeting between Heads of Government and I cannot predict in advance what will be discussed. However, it is likely that the issue of global warming and developing countries will be debated.
