question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made of the number of ECMT permits (a) required by UK haulier operations and (b) that will be made available in the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/07/2019 answer text <p>The Government has been clear that it does not intend to rely on ECMT permits after we leave the EU. The EU has agreed a regulation on basic road connectivity which guarantees rights for UK hauliers to continue providing services between the UK and the EU should the UK leave without a deal. As it stands, the Regulation would come into effect if the UK left the EU without a deal and would last until 31 December 2019.</p><p>Going forward, we will be working with Member States to agree on bilateral arrangements. Many old bilateral agreements would become reinstated if we leave without a deal and we are confident that other bilaterals will be agreed swiftly, given it is in the interest of both sides for freight to continue to flow.</p><p>The UK’s allocation of ECMT permits for 2020 is a base quota of 174 which is equivalent to 2,088 annual Euro VI ECMT permits.</p> answering member constituency Epsom and Ewell answering member printed Chris Grayling question first answered 11/07/2019 14:53:52 answering member 1413 label Biography information for Chris Grayling

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/07/2019 answer text <p>Following the extension to Article 50, Government Ministers and their Officials have reviewed and developed new border planning assumptions based on the most recent information available. These assumptions are focused on a reasonable worst case scenario, rather than what we expect to happen, and have already been shared with key partners to support contingency planning, where appropriate, should the UK leave the European Union on 31 October without a deal.</p> answering member constituency Epsom and Ewell answering member printed Chris Grayling question first answered 19/07/2019 11:15:53 answering member 1413 label Biography information for Chris Grayling

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/07/2019 answer text <p>The number of people working on EU Exit within the Department, including staff working on preparations at major ports for the UK leaving the EU on 31 October without a deal, can change in accordance with priorities. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a breakdown of staff numbers due to staff working on a variety of areas relating to EU Exit in parallel with each other.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Epsom and Ewell answering member printed Chris Grayling question first answered 19/07/2019 11:07:02 answering member 1413 label Biography information for Chris Grayling
