UK-India Summit

Asked for further information regarding the Prime Minister’s meeting with Prime Minister Singh tomorrow, and would they discuss terrorism, the PMOS replied that as always when the Prime Ministers met, terrorism would be one of the subjects. So too, however, would be other matters, including our economic links. Indeed, the Prime Minister was coming with a high-level Ministerial delegation, and a large business delegation.

The PMOS said that this was the third annual UK/India Summit, and they would hold talks in the morning, followed by a plenary session. They would be then be joined by Margaret Beckett, David Miliband and Alastair Darling, followed by a press conference. Obviously, we would also discuss our existing co-operation on counter-terrorism, but also matters such as rolling out clean technologies to tackle climate change, foster closer educational and science links, and boost trade and investment. The PMOS said that would give people a fairly good illustration of how broad the common agenda was that we now had with India.
