Text

It is unfortunate that the Member has decided to take away from that great opportunity for us to sell our wares and let people know that we are very much open for business. It was an investment summit that we turned out to and participated in. We had a great conversation on the Friday at the Council of the Nations and Regions, and we were back to London on the Monday for the investment summit, where we met representatives from numerous businesses that potentially want to invest here, so that we could set out our unique selling points. It was not within our gift to decide that local media would not turn up to do interviews in London, as was the case last Monday at the investment summit.
