Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Faulks on 12 February (HL4585), whether they will publish a list of countries invited to the Global Law Summit, and of those represented at the conference.

We will not be providing a further list of attendees over and above the delegate list already produced by the Global Law Summit for the event itself.

Official invitations were issued to all EU and Commonwealth countries, Crown Dependencies and Overseas Territories, and a list of countries drawn up by the Board of the Global Law Summit. Of these, approximately 65 countries, Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies sent delegations which included Justice Ministers, Attorneys General, Chief Justices or representatives of equivalent seniority.

In total delegates registered for the summit from 110 countries, Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies.
