Kampala Commonwealth Meeting confirmed

26 April 2007

Commonwealth governments collectively have accepted President Yoweri Museveni’s invitation to host the Meeting.

This year’s Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting will be held in Kampala, Uganda, and there are no alternatives under consideration, the Commonwealth Secretariat confirmed.

“Reports of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in November being moved from Kampala are incorrect,” Conference Secretary Matthew Neuhaus said in a statement on Thursday, 26 April 2007.

“Following a recent visit by a Commonwealth Secretariat planning team, a memorandum confirming administrative and logistical arrangements was issued to all Commonwealth governments on the very day of the erroneous reports,” Mr Neuhaus added.
