“The Conservative Middle East Council [of which Swire was elected Chairman last week] or CMEC is an organisation which exists to ensure that Conservative MPs and Peers understand the Middle East.
CMEC achieves this through a number of activities. Firstly, it organises delegations of Conservative MPs and Peers to the region. Delegations have visited Israel and the Palestinian Territories, Libya, Egypt, Syria, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Lebanon and Tunisia.
CMEC also organises a number of events in the UK. These include talks by experts in the Houses of Parliament, receptions and lectures.”
