answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2018 answer text <p>We value our international agreements and want to continue to cooperate in key global issues such as air services, trade, climate change, international development and nuclear cooperation. We have agreed with the EU that they will notify treaty partners that, during the implementation period, the UK is to be treated as a Member State for the purposes of its international agreements. This approach provides a basis for continuity across all relevant agreements.</p><p>A number of third countries (including Canada, Chile, Israel, Switzerland, South Africa, and Singapore) have welcomed the focus on delivering continuity into the implementation period. Countries are understandably waiting for the notification to be issued by the EU before they are able to confirm their clear agreement, and we are continuing to engage with them.</p><p>We are also engaging with our international partners in order to put in place arrangements that will come into force following the implementation period, and are making good progress with this work.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Spelthorne answering member printed Kwasi Kwarteng question first answered 21/12/2018 08:59:53 answering member 4134 label Biography information for Kwasi Kwarteng

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, with reference to Article 127 of the 1994 European Economic Area (EEA) Agreement, whether the Government has given the twelve months’ written notice to the other Contracting Parties of its intention to withdraw from that Agreement.

uin	185596
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/11/2018 answer text <p>The Government's legal position on this question remains unchanged: Article 127 does not need to be triggered for the European Economic Area (EEA) Agreement to cease to have effect. In the absence of any further action, the EEA Agreement will no longer operate in respect of the UK when we leave the EU. We do not consider, therefore, that providing written notice to the other Contracting Parties under Article 127 of the EEA Agreement is necessary.</p><p>We agreed with the EU at March European Council that they will notify third parties that the UK will be treated as a Member State for the purposes of international agreements during the implementation period. This includes the EEA Agreement.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Fareham answering member printed Suella Braverman question first answered 05/11/2018 17:24:53 answering member 4475 label Biography information for Suella Braverman
