answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/03/2018 answer text <p>The US and UK draw significant mutual security and economic benefit from our close defence industrial co-operation.

We are talking to defence suppliers and trade associations about potential impacts, and the Government will work with EU partners to consider the scope for exemptions.</p> answering member constituency Aberconwy answering member printed Guto Bebb question first answered 14/03/2018 16:12:04 answering member 3910 label Biography information for Guto Bebb
