Two members of the Falkland Islands Legislative Assembly, Dorothy “Dot” Gould and Michael Goss, addressed the United Nations Special Committee on Decolonisation, known as the Committee of 24 (C24), on June 25, where they defended the right to self-determination of the archipelago’s inhabitants and renewed their invitation for the body to send a visiting mission to the Islands, something that has never happened since the UN began considering the question in 1965.
