The Somaliland Development Corp
Key note statements:
Hon Alun Michael MP 9th MP Feb 2012 per Hansard:
“Despite its extraordinary achievements in stability and democracy, international donors cannot deal directly with its Government, and foreign investors face uncertainty about whether contracts—the basis of secure business—can be enforced. The point of the corporation is to establish an entity to circumvent that problem. Indeed, I hope that it might lead the Foreign Office, through our trade arrangements, to be able to underpin some of the potential for business development and trade with Somaliland, which is difficult at present. “
Hon Alun Michael MP, co chair of the UK All Party Parliamentary Group for Somalia and Somaliland:
“I know that the Minister has already welcomed one initiative, namely the establishment of the Somaliland Development Corporation. It is being established because of the lack of recognition that makes involvement in international trade and business difficult…. The point of the corporation is to facilitate international investment in Somaliland and economic interaction for the benefit of the Somaliland people. Hansard 9 Feb 2012 : Column 532
Hon Tony Baldry MP, co chair of the UK All Party Parliamentary Group for Somalia and Somaliland:
“It is excellent that UK initiatives are being taken by the voluntary and other sectors to set up a Somaliland Development Corporation, so that we here can give Somaliland whatever help we can with investment and job creation. Hansard 9 Feb 2012 : Column 536
U.K. Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, Minister for Africa, Hon Henry Bellingham MP:
“I take on board what my Hon. Friend said about the Somaliland Development Corporation and the role of the private sector. Hansard 9 Feb 2012 : Column 575
