answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/12/2018 answer text <p>Following productive discussions with the EU, a clear vision for the UK’s future relationship with the EU has been set out in the recent Political Declaration. This included an agreement that both parties will establish general principles, terms and conditions for the UK’s participation in future EU programmes in areas of shared interest, including in areas such as science and innovation, culture and education. The next generation of EU programmes are currently under negotiation in the EU. The Government will decide whether to participate in specific programmes in light of these negotiations and wider UK priorities.</p><p>Furthermore, under the terms of the proposed Withdrawal Agreement, UK entities' right to participate in EU programmes during the current Multiannual Financial Framework period, such as Horizon 2020 and Creative Europe, will be unaffected by the UK's withdrawal from the EU for the lifetime of projects financed by the current MFF. According to the Withdrawal Agreement, UK based organisations and individuals will be able to bid for funding, participate in and lead consortia, until programme closure.</p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 20/12/2018 15:41:37 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

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

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2018 answer text <p>As article 129(1) of the Withdrawal Agreement makes clear, the UK will continue to be bound by obligations arising from our international agreements during the implementation period. We have agreed with the EU that they will notify treaty partners that the UK is to be treated as a Member State for the purposes of its international agreements with third countries during this period. The notification is intended to cover international agreements as defined in the Withdrawal Agreement - international agreements concluded by the Union, by Member States acting on its behalf, or by the Union and its Member States acting jointly.</p><p>In accordance with the principle of sincere cooperation, the UK has committed during the implementation period, to refrain from any action or initiative which is likely to be prejudicial to the Union’s interests. In particular in the framework of any international organisation, agency, conference or forum of which the UK is a party in its own right. This will not prevent the UK from negotiating, signing and ratifying new international agreements to come into force after the Implementation Period, even where the subject matter of those agreements would ordinarily be within the exclusive competence of the Union.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Spelthorne answering member printed Kwasi Kwarteng question first answered 21/12/2018 08:58:39 answering member 4134 label Biography information for Kwasi Kwarteng

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/02/2019 answer text <p>The Political Declaration makes clear that both the EU and the UK will use their 'best endeavours' to conclude a future fisheries agreement by 1 July 2020. The European Council statement sets out the EU’s view of their position, but ultimately access to our waters will be a matter for negotiation.</p><p>We remain committed to getting the best deal for the whole of the UK fishing industry, including a fair share of quotas. A Government amendment has been made to the Fisheries Bill placing a legal obligation on the Government, when negotiating a fisheries agreement with the EU, to pursue a greater share of fishing opportunities (looked at in the round) than the UK currently receives under the Common Fisheries Policy.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 06/02/2019 13:50:09 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris
