<p>The Government’s Civil Judicial Cooperation Future Partnership Paper of August
2017 makes clear that an effective framework of civil judicial cooperation, which
includes insolvency law, is an important part of the deep and special partnership
we want to establish with the EU. It is in the interests of the UK and the EU that
there continues to be an effective framework for resolving cross-border legal disputes
after we leave.</p><p>This will provide confidence and certainty to families, business
and individuals, ensuring they can continue to settle cross-border disputes efficiently
and effectively in the future. The current rules, on which we hope to model a new
agreement, provide a legal route to resolving often difficult or desperate situations.</p><p>The
exact future relationship between the EU and UK on civil judicial cooperation, including
the recognition of insolvency and restructuring procedures and judgments, is subject
to negotiations with our EU partners.</p>
