Hon AUPITO WILLIAM SIO (Associate Minister of Foreign Affairs) on behalf of the Minister of Foreign Affairs: I thank the member from the Green Party for their important question. It is particularly relevant given the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report released last night, which underscored the significant impacts climate change will have on the Pacific and other small islands. It is no secret that Pacific Island countries are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, and climate change remains the most significant issue facing the Pacific region despite contributing little to global emissions. I am advised she has received a number of pieces of advice to that effect, which covers climate finance, climate migration, sea-level rise, maritime boundaries, as well as significant general advice given. This is a priority area for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT), including in the overseas development assistance programme. We are on track to meet our climate finance commitment made in 2018 to provide at least $300 million in climate finance over four years, with at least two-thirds to the Pacific.
