Article 50 states that the process for withdrawal will take account of the ‘framework’
of the leaving Member State’s future relationship with the EU, and there is a clear
connection between the terms of our withdrawal and the future relationship that we
want to establish.<p>We do not want to get ahead of the negotiations or set out unilateral
positions. How we take the process forward will be a matter for discussion with the
EU institutions and our European partners. But given the language in Article 50, and
the connection between our withdrawal and our future relationship, it is our intention
to seek to deal with both sets of issues together wherever possible, something that
would clearly be in the interests of the EU as well as the UK.</p>
