The BIC Secretariat organised a seminar in Belfast on 24-25 February 2016 to engage government stakeholders in considering how the BIC can evolve in the years ahead.

Sixty officials attended the seminar from across the eight BIC member administrations including many Northern Ireland Executive work sector members. Speakers from across government shared their views on BIC, on parallel institutions and on the developments in relationships across these islands, providing a context and prompt for subsequent discussion among officials.
