Session 8

Concluding Remarks
Sir Marrack Goulding
Good afternoon. Welcome everyone to the last session of this conference. We have two speakers for this last session. We also have the perception that there are an awful lot of people out here who lots of things they still want to say. Every sessions so far has ended reluctantly because the chair has insisted that the time has come to an end. And one has a sense of a great deal of unfinished business of unexpressed views. So our two speakers have both kindly speak that they will only speak for about 15 minutes which means that if we allow ourselves a little latitude on 6 o'clock, we should have something like 50 minutes for discussion. The first speaker will be Timothy Garton Ash who has not actually been at the conference, but he is well known to have an astonishing capacity to keep his finger on the pulse of everything that is happening wherever it's happening and he also brings to us ideas which have been put forward at another conference about Europe taking place at the other end of the city in the Said Business School, also a conference organised by St. Antony's. And he will speak first, secondly Lord Ahmed, who has been here throughout the conference, will speak and I will throw the floor open to comments, observations, statements that anybody wants to make or questions you want to put to the panellists for this session.
