Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he plans to re-schedule the UK-African Investment Summit.

The UK-African Investment Summit, due to take place in April 2024, was postponed owing to scheduling issues in the international calendar.

The UK is committed to reconnecting with African countries, listening to our African partners and putting trade and growth at the heart of our partnerships. This includes working with South Africa next year under their G20 Presidency.
