answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/10/2019 answer text <p>Both the UK and the EU want to ensure that European manufacturing continues to thrive in an increasingly competitive global market. Many manufactured goods sectors, such as chemicals, aerospace goods, human and veterinary medicines and medical devices, are subject to common rules across the EU. We recognise that adapting to new regulatory requirements takes time, so the Government will provide continuity in goods regulation for a temporary period after exit day.</p><p>This does not mean that everything will stay the same, but the approach is intended to ensure that in many cases the regulatory requirements for placing a manufactured good on the UK market will not significantly change from those which currently apply. As a result, most goods that meet EU regulatory requirements will continue to be recognised as valid for sale on the UK market.</p><p>This approach will provide stability in the immediate short term for those businesses who place goods on the UK market, as well as for consumers. It is intended only to apply for a time-limited period after October 31. At the same time the Government is establishing domestic frameworks which mean the UK will have the flexibility to set different rules where it would benefit UK businesses and consumers.</p><p><strong></strong><br><br></p> answering member constituency Rochford and Southend East answering member printed James Duddridge question first answered 03/10/2019 11:55:53 answering member 1559 label Biography information for Sir James Duddridge

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/01/2019 answer text <p>Making a success of EU exit is a priority for the Government. Departments across government have been working to prepare for different EU exit scenarios, including for no-deal. At Autumn Budget 2017, the Chancellor set aside £1.5 billion for EU Exit preparations in both 2018/19 and 2019/20; this was subsequently increased by £0.5bn for 2019/20 in the 2018 Budget. There is no regional breakdown, but information on how this funding was allocated for 2018/19 and 2019/20 has been published by the Chief Secretary.</p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 17/01/2019 16:15:01 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/12/2018 answer text <p>We expect EU Exit to present both opportunities and challenges for regions across the country. My Department is working closely with local government, key sector representatives and with other Government Departments including Health, Education, Housing, Communities and Local Government to consider potential national or local impacts, which may arise from EU Exit, and the necessary preparations for a wide range of scenarios.</p><p>This government has been clear that we do not want or expect a ‘no deal’ scenario. The UK and the EU have agreed the terms of the UK’s smooth and orderly exit from the EU in the form of the Withdrawal Agreement, and a detailed political declaration on the terms of our future relationship. Nevertheless, the government will continue to do the responsible thing and prepare for all eventualities. Extensive work to prepare for a no deal scenario has been under way for over two years and we are taking necessary steps to ensure the country continues to operate smoothly from the day we leave.</p><p>Since the referendum, DExEU Ministers have made frequent visits to regions across the country, including to the West Midlands, and are committed to continuing this productive engagement with businesses and local government throughout the UK.</p><p>The Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government are leading an extensive programme of engagement, listening to the sector and gathering intelligence on council concerns and preparedness, which has included discussions with Chief Executives from Coventry City Council, and Solihull Council.</p><p>Senior policy officials have engaged with local authority representatives from throughout the West Midlands, through various forums, including a regional event in Birmingham on 13 December. Representatives from Coventry and the West Midlands are also key contributors to the Ministry of Housing, Community and Local Government’s EU Exit Advisory Panel.</p><p>This extensive programme of engagement is replicated throughout England, enabling the Government to assess and support local authority preparedness and to discuss and address the issues and opportunities of EU Exit.</p><p /> <p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 20/12/2018 15:40:32 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

The Government Legal Department (and the Office of the Advocate General for matters in Scotland) is responsible for billing departments as clients for litigation services. DExEU does not therefore hold an estimate of the totality of the costs associated with Brexit related cases across Government.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 13/12/2018 13:14:55 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/12/2018 answer text <p>The government has successfully reached a deal with the EU and delivering the deal is its top priority.</p><p>The final deal that Parliament will be voting on means that we will leave the EU in a smooth and orderly way on 29 March 2019. It sets the framework for a future relationship that delivers in our national interest. It takes back control of our borders, laws and money, it protects jobs, security and the integrity of the United Kingdom, and it delivers in ways that many said could simply not be done.</p><p>Anything other than straightforward approval of the deal will bring with it huge uncertainty for business, consumers and citizens.</p><p>However, as a responsible government we have undertaken extensive work over the past two years to prepare for a potential no deal scenario.</p><p>We have published 106 technical notices to help businesses and citizens to prepare for March 2019 in the unlikely event that we leave the EU without a deal. In addition to these technical notices, we have already successfully passed critical legislation, signed international agreements, recruited additional staff and guaranteed certain EU funding in preparation for a no deal scenario.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 10/12/2018 14:31:24 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris
