answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/03/2018 answer text <p>The UK recognises that there needs to be a clear mechanism for governing and enforcing our Withdrawal Agreement with the EU, as there is in any international agreement, and we will continue to engage constructively on this in the negotiations. However, we have been clear that this cannot mean continuing the direct jurisdiction of the CJEU after the UK has left the EU. In our paper last summer, we set out the principles underpinning our approach to enforcement and dispute resolution which included respect for the autonomy of both the UK and EU.</p> answering member printed Lord Callanan question first answered 06/03/2018 13:06:28 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan

tabling member printed	Lord Taylor of Warwick
uin	HL5850
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/03/2018 answer text <p>The Government has been clear that the aim of the time-limited Implementation Period must be to avoid a disorderly exit from the European Union for individuals and businesses both in the UK and the EU and should therefore provide sufficient time to put new processes and systems in place. As the PM set out in Florence, that points to a duration in the region of two years. This is in line with the Commission’s published position. We remain confident that we will reach agreement by March European Council.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The Government is undertaking a comprehensive programme of analytical work across a range of scenarios. It is not standard practice to provide a running commentary on ongoing, internal analysis.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Callanan question first answered 01/03/2018 15:58:19 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/03/2018 answer text <p>Both the Government and the Commission have been clear that a time-limited implementation period is negotiable.
