British Overseas Territories: Politics and Government
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment her Department has made of the potential merits of the elected head of government chairing meetings of Cabinet in all Overseas Territories.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
Arrangements on chairing Cabinet meetings are set out in each Overseas Territory's constitution. The UK will engage closely and proactively with each Overseas Territory where the democratically elected Territory Government seeks engagement on reviewing their constitution.
