Premier of the TCI the Hon. Dr. Rufus Ewing is in the United Kingdom this week to address critical matters with the head of the OT.
During the press conference held on Sunday last, the Premier highlighted the points of interests.
Premier the Hon Dr. Rufus Ewing
The first meeting the Premier attended yesterday was with the UKOTA Group, where the OT leaders met to strategize as to the various angles they would take when the GMT bilateral meeting was held.
Today the Premier is in the joint ministerial meeting with the Minister for the Overseas Territories along with other OT leaders who will be presenting on a variety of portfolios. Our Premier by profession a doctor will be presenting on health.
The JMC is expected to continue on Wednesday with a reception scheduled for Thursday.
The Premier was asked if time would allow for him to meet with students residing in the UK, but the Premier added that the schedule of meeting was tight and as most of our students are in Manchester, it would be tedious to get there and back. He did add that some students in London have been invited to that reception where he hopes to engage with them on what’s happening here at home. Dr. Ewing did add that he would stop by our UK office before returning to the country on Thursday.
We’ll have more from those meetings in a subsequent news cast.
