​A delegation from the British-Irish Parliamentary Association met the CoR President and a number of members of the CoR including Cllr Tony Buchanan, Vice Chair of the EA group.

The group discussed BREXIT implications for local and regional government, the work of the CoR and in particular the Conference of Presidents' engagement with regional and local governments.  Cllr Buchanan said that while it is the position of the British Government to leave, this is not the wish of Scotland and every solution needs to also respect the Scottish perspective.
