As the Written Ministerial Statement laid by the Department for Exiting the EU on 7 November made clear, it will take the Department, working with other departments, time to collate and bring together this information in a way that is accessible and informative for the Committee. The Government is committed to providing the information to the Committee as soon as is possible. As set out in the Written Ministerial Statement, we expect this to be no more than three weeks.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 23/11/2017 14:12:51 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
