Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK (CANZUK) APPG

First Registered: 24/09/2020 • Last updated on: 01/09/2026

The group exists to deepen practical cooperation between Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. In an era of growing global instability, nations bound by common history, values and institutions have both the opportunity and the responsibility to work more closely together.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
