<p>The UK has no plans to discuss the creation of new specialist agencies at the next
Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM). We are focused on strengthening
and delivering through the existing institutions, organisations and networks of the
Commonwealth. Those include the three inter-governmental organisations (the Commonwealth
Secretariat, the Commonwealth Foundation and the Commonwealth of Learning) and their
many programmes; several intergovernmental fora of ministers and senior officials;
and over 80 Commonwealth-accredited organisations. We look forward to the postponed
CHOGM being held in Kigali next year. The UK will continue as Commonwealth Chair-in-Office
until then.</p>
