Re: Government time to debate national security assessment on biodiversity loss, ecosystem
collapse and national security
Dear Secretary of State,
Further to my letter of 3 February 2026, I write again about the Government’s national security
assessment’s stark warning that global biodiversity loss and ecosystem collapse pose a serious threat to
the United Kingdom’s security and prosperity.
Today, the United Nations warned that the planet is being ‘pushed beyond its limits’ as energy imbalance
reach record high and its Secretary-General António Guterres called on countries to "deliver climate
security, energy security and national security"
.
In this context, I would be grateful for an indication on when you will set a time to debate the Joint
Intelligence Committee’s report as indicated by the Leader of the House following my Business Question
[AC/IDC1226].
With thanks,
Adrian Ramsay
