answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/03/2019 answer text <p>As part of the Withdrawal Agreement, we have reached a fair financial settlement with the EU, honouring commitments we made during our period of membership, and ensuring a fair deal for UK taxpayers. In the event that we leave the EU without a deal, the financial settlement as set out in the Withdrawal Agreement would no longer apply. The Government recognises that the UK has obligations to the EU, and the EU obligations to the UK, that will survive the UK’s withdrawal—and that these need to be resolved. But in a no deal scenario we would need to determine how to do so.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 21/03/2019 17:11:18 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/03/2019 answer text <p>The Government has set out a unilateral offer to protect the rights of EU citizens living in the UK in all scenarios, and has been urging all Member States to do the same for UK nationals living in their countries.</p><p>Despite the welcome progress made by some Member States to protect the rights of UK nationals in their countries, there are other areas where the offer to UK nationals falls short, particularly in relation to healthcare. This is why the Government supported the objective of the Costa amendment on the 27 February, as a ring-fenced agreement would achieve our aim of providing certainty to citizens whatever the outcome of negotiations. The Government is now writing to the EU institutions seeking clarity on their position in regards to ring-fencing the citizens’ rights part of the Withdrawal Agreement.</p><p>If a joint UK-EU commitment to ring-fence citizens cannot be achieved, protecting the rights of UK nationals in the EU would, in a no deal, ultimately be a matter for the EU and individual Member States. We are urging them to take all necessary measures to do so. The Foreign Secretary has written to all of his counterparts, and the Government is holding further urgent discussions with Member States to seek assurances on the rights of UK nationals in the EU.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 06/03/2019 10:52:45 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/03/2019 answer text <p>The Implementation Period - as set out in Part Four of the Withdrawal Agreement - is intended to give businesses and citizens certainty. Without a Withdrawal Agreement, there can be no Implementation Period. That is why we are working with the EU so Parliament can support a deal and the UK can leave the EU in a smooth and orderly way on 29 March 2019.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 04/03/2019 16:20:59 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

The Government has set out a reasonable central estimate of the financial settlement in the Withdrawal Agreement of £35bn to £39bn, which the 20 April 2018 National Audit Office report ‘Exiting the EU: The financial settlement’ concluded was reasonable.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 24/01/2019 17:32:44 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/01/2019 answer text <p>As a matter of course, the Government does not publish legal advice.</p><p>The EEA Agreement only applies to the UK in its capacity as an EU Member State. The EEA Agreement will no longer operate in respect of the UK when we leave the EU. However, at the March European Council we agreed with the EU that the UK is to be treated as a Member State for the purposes of international agreements for the duration of the implementation period. This includes the EEA Agreement. Alongside the Withdrawal Agreement, the EU undertook to notify its treaty partners that the UK is to be treated as a Member State for the purposes of EU international agreements during the implementation period.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 14/01/2019 12:27:23 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/12/2018 answer text <p>The annexes to the Protocol set out the small fraction of EU rules that would apply in the event that the backstop was in effect - though as we have been clear, we fully expect alternative arrangements to be in place to avoid the need for its use by the end of 2020.</p><p>In that scenario, the only EU rules that apply would be the fraction strictly necessary to avoid a hard border on the island of Ireland and give frictionless access to the EU market for all goods from Northern Ireland’s businesses. That includes, as we have set out in the explainer to the Agreement and other accompanying documents, product standards on industrial goods and agricultural goods. But the net effect in a backstop would be significantly increased powers and flexibility for a restored Northern Ireland Assembly and for Parliament. For example, the Protocol is clear that in the case of non-harmonised goods (such as clothing), the placing of goods on the market would be a matter for the United Kingdom.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 12/12/2018 16:22:25 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
