The General Secretary of the Celtic League has congratulated British Conservative Party leader, David Cameron, following the establishment of a specific Ministerial post to cover Cornwall.

However Rhisiart Tal-e-bot has also directed a number of pointed questions to the Conservative leader about his parties attitude to a series of measures which would advance Cornish self-determination (see below).

"David Cameron M.P. House of Commons Westminster London, SW1A 0AA England

Dear David Cameron MP

Cornwall

The Celtic League would like to congratulate you and your Party for taking the initiative of creating the Minister of Cornwall post and we look forward to other parties following your example. Cornwall has been neglected for too long by the main political parties and believe that a Ministry of Cornwall department would ensure that its distinct culture, identity, language and economy are treated more squarely with Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Further to this development we are also interested to know what the position of the Conservative Party is regarding several other issues, stated below:

Will the Conservative Party be willing to support the establishment of a Cornish development Agency and if not, why?

What is the Conservative Party position on granting Cornwall Unitary Authority status?

Does the Conservative Party support the campaign for a Cornish Assembly and if not, why?

Many thanks for taking the time to consider these questions in full and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely

Rhisiart Tal-e-bot General Secretary Celtic league"
