Proceeding contribution from Gordon Brown (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 March 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Spring European Council.
Spring European Council
I think the timings of the parliamentary recess were agreed far before those of the G20. I worked very hard to get a date that was suitable to the American President and to other world leaders, and we finally agreed that the date was the date that we chose. I think I am fair in saying that the date for this summit has to be set with a view towards bringing together the whole of the world, and that is what we have done.
