Chief Represents Island at British-Irish Council Summit

The Chief Minister Alfred Cannan MHK represented the Isle of Man at the British-Irish Council Summit in the Vale of Glamorgan in Wales this morning.

The Summit is an opportunity for heads of government and ministers from across the UK, Ireland and the Crown Dependencies to discuss matters of mutual interest.

The Chief Minister said: “The Isle of Man is a valuable member of the British-Irish Council. The island’s size means that the ability to come together with other nations to share and exchange information is of the utmost value to help amplify our global impact.

“It is also a key forum to raise the profile of the Isle of Man and to maintain the island’s national interests”

The Summit, hosted by the Welsh Government, is the forty-fourth to be held since the first meeting of the Council in 1999.
