<p>Minister for the Commonwealth and the UN, Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon, held a bilateral
meeting with Leslie Jaques, Lead Councillor for International Relations and Divisional
Manager for Economics and Finance for Pitcairn at the Joint Ministerial Council in
December 2018. The Minister reaffirmed the future sustainability of the island as
being an important issue for Government, reassured that we remain committed to fully
involving the Overseas Territories in the EU exit negotiation process and welcomed
the positive findings of the Child Safety Review.</p><p>The Governor for Pitcairn
visited the islands in May 2018, and is planning a further visit this August.</p><p>I
was also glad to learn of the amazing work the Islanders contributed to on cleaning
some of the horrendous plastic pollution from the beaches of Henderson Island (which
is part of the Pitcairn group) last month.</p>
