During the interview, the Governor was asked about his extensive background in international relations and communications and how the two intersect. 

In his reply, Governor Pruce said that, being a diplomat for over 30 years, he had found that these two areas, international relations and communications, intersect. 

I try to do a decent job

He explained that for the business of politics, government and international relations to be effective, it must be intertwined with successful communication, consultation with the wider public and engagement with stakeholders. 

“I mean, I try to do a decent job in both domains. I mean, others will judge how well they think I'm doing. But I think in the roles that I've held previously and also absolutely in this role that intersection between international relations, government relations, the business of administration and effective external communications is absolutely critical.”

The Governor referred to a point he made when he was sworn in as Governor in January 2024, where he said there must be a duty to transparency. 

“To explain what you are doing and what you're trying to achieve, in your role, because it's a privilege to serve in those roles and there's a responsibility to explain your actions.”
