answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/09/2018 answer text <p>We want a positive future relationship with the EU encompassing both economic and security cooperation and we have published our White Paper on the future relationship setting out in detail how we want to work together in the future. We are confident that this is in the interests of both sides and we are working with the EU’s negotiating team at pace to agree the terms of our future relationship alongside the Withdrawal Agreement later this year.</p><p>At the end of that process, Parliament will have a vote. The vote offered by Government to Parliament will be either to accept or reject the deal. If the Withdrawal Agreement and the framework for our future relationship are not approved by the House of Commons, the Government will be unable to ratify the withdrawal agreement. As a matter of international law, the EU Treaties will cease to apply to the UK on 29 March 2019. .</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 04/09/2018 16:19:29 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/09/2018 answer text <p>The UK is proposing a UK-EU free trade area, underpinned by a common rulebook. For industrial goods, including medicines, it would cover rules that set requirements for placing a product on the market. It would also feature bespoke provisions for human and animal medicines which reflect their unique status, and would be supplemented by continued UK participation in the European Medicines Agency. We look forward to continuing our negotiations with the EU on this issue.</p><p>In the unlikely event that it is not possible to reach a mutually satisfactory deal with the EU, the Department of Health and Social Care has already set outs its plans in technical notices to ensure that patients can continue to access medicines, including recognising batch-testing carried out in the EU.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 14/09/2018 10:01:10 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
