Minister of Economy Sultan bin Saeed Al Mansouri said that the ministry would explore the possibility of setting up a UAE-UK Federal Business Council that builds on the excellent work the British business groups in the UAE were currently undertaking.

The ministry will co-ordinate with concerned parties to discuss this proposal mooted at the JEC and inform the UK about the UAE’s recommendation, Al Mansouri said in a Press statement.
