To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of proposed changes by the Cayman Islands government to the National Conservation Law on their ability to minimise the effects of climate change in the territory.

The UK is committed to strengthening our partnership with the Overseas Territories to protect and sustainably manage our unique and globally significant environments. However, responsibility for environment and climate change policy is a devolved matter. We understand the Cayman Islands Government's draft National Conservation Bill is not yet finalised but will be published for public consultation before it is debated in Parliament.
