Work on no-deal exit preparations cannot be readily separated from other EU exit work, given the significant overlap in plans in many cases.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 08/07/2019 10:24:26 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick
