<p>The Department is tasked with successfully delivering the UK’s exit from the European
Union. A key element of this is ensuring preparation for all possible scenarios, including
leaving the EU without a deal.</p><p>The Department’s costs, along with planned Estimates
for future years, can be found in the latest Annual Report and Accounts (<a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/727528/CCS207_CCS0618826768-1_DExEU_ARA_1718_PDF_Final_TEXT_v2__1_.pdf"
target="_blank">link</a>). It is not however possible to accurately attribute the
Department’s costs to specific scenario planning, such as “no deal”, as the Department’s
work is not compartmentalised in such a manner.</p><p>The Department cannot comment
on the cost of the work performed by other departments. Such questions would need
redirecting to each department.</p><p> </p>
