That is why we are clear that anyone who arrived in the UK before the date we triggered Article 50 (29 March 2017) will be covered by the UK’s proposed approach. And all EU citizens in the UK will have their rights protected under EU law until the date we leave the EU.

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, with reference to paragraph 10 of his Department's policy paper entitled Safeguarding the position of EU citizens in the UK and UK nationals in the EU, published on 26 June 2017, what additional steps people who have received permanent residence documentation will have to take in order to secure settled status.

uin	3553
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/07/2017 answer text There is no need to do anything now. The UK will remain a member of the EU until March 2019 and there will be no change to the rights and status of EU citizens living in the UK, nor UK nationals living in the EU, during this time. Permanent residence status is linked to the UK’s membership of the EU and so will no longer be valid after we leave. Therefore EU citizens do not need to apply for documentation confirming their permanent residence status. We will be asking EU citizens to make an application to the Home Office for documentation demonstrating their new settled status in due course. We will make the process as streamlined as possible for all individuals, including those who already hold a residence document under current free movement rules. <strong>Our intention is that the grace period last up to two years, giving people plenty of time to regularise their status.</strong> Anyone who would like to find out the latest information, including when they will need to sign up for the new scheme, can sign-up for email updates here. answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 17/07/2017 07:52:21 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/07/2017 answer text <p>The majority of Bermudian citizens are entitled to British citizenship under the British Overseas Territories Act 2002 and, as EU citizens, can exercise free movement rights in the EU while the UK remains a member of the EU. This is the case for most British Overseas Territory Citizens.</p><p>The UK’s offer on citizens’ rights after we exit the EU is set out in the policy paper “Safeguarding the position of EU citizens in the UK and UK nationals in the EU”, published on 26 June 2017. It seeks to ensure that EU citizens in the UK retain their rights to residence, benefits and pensions, and access to services, including healthcare and education. We have been clear that we expect the EU to apply similar principles to those outlined in our policy paper in respect of UK nationals (including British citizens) and reach a reciprocal deal on this issue.</p><p>The post-exit immigration rules that apply to British nationals in the EU will be the subject of negotiations, as will the detail of the future relationship between the Overseas Territories and the EU.</p><p>The Government has committed to fully involving the Overseas Territories in discussions on EU exit to ensure their interests are taken into account. UK Ministers and leaders of the Overseas Territories have committed to taking forward future engagement through the creation of the UK – Overseas Territories Joint Ministerial Council (JMC) on European Negotiations. The JMC met for the second time on 10 July 2017, chaired jointly by myself and Foreign Office Minister Lord Ahmad. We discussed a range of issues of interest to the Overseas Territories, including immigration and citizens’ rights.</p><p><strong></strong><br><br></p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 17/07/2017 07:55:12 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

As such, any policy changes resulting from EU exit will be reviewed to ascertain whether they ​give rise to discrimination on grounds of sex, create equality of opportunity for women or the likelihood of discrimination based on sex, and foster good relations between women and men. The Public Sector Equality Duty will also apply in relation to the other protected characteristics.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 17/07/2017 15:58:10 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
