Global Dashboard in front of Foreign Affairs Select Committee
by Alex Evans | Jan 11, 2011
The House of Commons Foreign Affairs Select Committee is doing an inquiry at the moment into “The Role of the Foreign & Commonwealth Office in UK Government” – details and terms of reference can be found here. You can also read what Lords Hennessy and Jay had to tell the Committee here, and what former Foreign Secretaries David Miliband and Malcolm Rifkind had to say in their session here.
Tomorrow David and I are up in front of the Committee, talking about our Chatham House report Organising for Influence (pdf) – it’s at 3pm in the Grimond Room of Portcullis House if you’re in Westminster. We’ll post a link to the transcript of our evidence once it’s up.
