<p>We have no doubt about our sovereignty over the British Indian Ocean Territory,
which has been under continuous British sovereignty since 1814. The United Kingdom
remains committed to implementing the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea Arbitral
Award of 2015. In line with the Award we will continue to approach discussions with
Mauritius with an open mind about the best way to meet our obligations under the Award
and to ensure proper conservation management of this unique marine environment.</p>
