My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. The Lowy Institute reports that, as president of COP, Alok Sharma visited more than 50 countries. Media reports that he travelled 200,000 miles, which is the equivalent of eight trips around the Earth. As president of COP31 negotiations, how many countries will the minister be required to visit, how many miles will he need to travel, and how much taxpayer money will be spent in finding the full-time presidential duties of the part-time minister?
