The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and External Trade reaffirms its commitment on the establishment of the Solomon Islands High Commission in London.

The Solomon Islands High Commission to the UK, which became operational on 3rd April 2017, is part of the Governments political commitment in enhancing bilateral and multilateral diplomatic commitments in the UK. Hence, the London Mission remains a priority mission for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and External Trade.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and External Trade is making every effort to ensure the newly established Mission in London is appropriately resourced and this is being pursued through the relevant processes.

The substantive High Commissioner for Solomon Islands to the UK still remains as H.E Moses Mose who is Non-resident but continues to carryout representative duties from Brussels, as well as, overseeing the day to day operations of the London based Solomon Islands High Commission Office.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and External Trade, is working closely with the Prime Minister’s Office, on the appointment of the new High Commissioner who will be deployed to post soon.
