Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what matters in regard to financial support for protecting the global environment will be discussed at the meeting of G7 Finance Ministers in Washington on 28 April.

Mrs. Chalker

A number of important issues will be discussed at the G7 Finance Ministers meeting in Washington, but it is not possible to forecast how discussions will develop. Environment will be discussed at the development committee meeting on 29–30 April and there will be a meeting of the global environment facility on 1 and 2 May. The United Kingdom has pledged approximately £40 milion to the core facility plus £8 million for the programme to phase out CFCs.
