uin	235285
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/03/2019 answer text <p>The Withdrawal Agreement protects the rights of those who are frontier workers at the end of the transition period, for as long as they continue to be frontier workers in the host state. The Agreement will ensure that these frontier workers are able to enter and leave the UK for work, enjoying broadly the same rights as they do now, after the end of the implementation period.</p><p>We will also protect the rights of frontier workers in the event of a no deal. Many of this cohort will spend enough time in the UK to qualify for status under the EU Settlement Scheme. Otherwise, they will be able to obtain a separate UK immigration status which will allow them to continue frontier working into the UK after exit.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 26/03/2019 10:15:34 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
