Question
To ask Her Majesty's Government what discussions they have had on inviting Pope Francis to COP26.
All parties of the UNFCCC are entitled to attend a COP. We are not in a position to confirm at this stage the attendance of specific leaders, but as the Holy See is a UNFCCC observer state, His Holiness The Pope will receive an invitation.
It is at the discretion of each party as to what level of representation they send.
