answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/06/2017 answer text <p>The Department for Exiting the European Union is undertaking a wide range of analysis of the effect on the economy, in partnership with HM Treasury and other government departments and has been engaging closely with stakeholders. The UK’s decision to leave the EU means there will be a period of adjustment, but the UK economy is resilient. The unemployment rate is at its lowest level in four decades and the employment rate has never been higher. Businesses have continued to show their confidence in the UK, with major investments announced by GlaxoSmithKline, Google and Apple, among others. During our negotiations with the EU we are determined to get the very best deal for households and businesses and will continue to work closely with other government departments and HM Treasury to achieve this.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 30/06/2017 13:59:37 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
