We now go to questions to the Prime Minister.

The question is the Prime Minister, I will first call the Prime Minister to answer the engagement question.

I will then call Anna MacMoran to ask her supplementary.

Prime Minister.

Thank you, Mr Speaker.

I know that you've been updated by my officials on pretty cancelled terms on the leak investigation that you also referred to in the House on the 2nd of November.

As you know, Mr. Speaker, I take this matter extremely seriously and I commit to returning to update the House in due course.

Mr. Speaker, this morning I had virtual meetings with ministerial colleagues and others, in addition to my virtual duties in this time, I shall have further such meetings later today.

Madam MacMorham.

Thank you.

This pandemic has shown how interconnected and vulnerable we are to global challenges.

When we're still grappling

with COVID, the climate emergency, growing hunger, why is this government reported to be breaking

its own manifesto commitment and cutting the aid budget which saves lives and builds resilience?

So will the Prime Minister stop this retreat from the global stage

and take this opportunity to rule that out here and now?

Prime Minister.

Thank you, Mr Speaker. I can tell the Honourable Lady, I think everybody in this country

can be immensely proud of the massive commitments that this country has made and

will continue to make to tackling poverty and deprivation around the world.

But I think they can be even prior of the commitment that we are now making and leading

the world to tackle the threat of climate change.
