The Chatham House Rule
What stays in the room.
Both Chambers are closed and held under the Chatham House Rule. Nothing from the Chambers is streamed or recorded out, and interviews never take place inside the Chambers. Auditorium sessions are streamed one way into the Chamber rooms. Applies to both Global Chambers (no recording; nothing streamed or quoted out), the Executive Gala Dinner (Chatham House-style) and the Leaders' Co-Investment Compact Breakfast (no press). Global Leaders' Summit speakers agree in writing to speak on the record; ministers who prefer the Chatham House Rule take part in the breakfast and closing sessions instead.
