	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2017 answer text <p>The whole of Government is preparing for the UK to make an orderly and successful exit from the European Union. Cross-government governance arrangements are coordinating efforts across Whitehall. The Prime Minister established and chairs a Cabinet Committee on European Union Exit and Trade to oversee the UK’s exit at Cabinet level. The Committee meets regularly. Since the triggering of Article 50, two new subcommittees, chaired by the Prime Minister, have been established. One will oversee the negotiations on the UK’s withdrawal from and new relationship with the EU, and the second will focus on issues relating to the UK’s future trading arrangements with non-European countries. At official level, the cross-government EU Exit Analysis Board provides oversight and direction to analytical work related to EU exit, including sectoral and regional analysis, being undertaken across Whitehall. The Department for Exiting the European Union, working with officials across government, continues to undertake a wide range of analysis to support our negotiations, covering the entirety of the UK economy.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 24/07/2017 14:48:40 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2017 answer text <p>The Prime Minister has always been clear that our first priority is to reach agreement on the post-exit position of EU citizens now living in the UK and of UK nationals and living in other EU countries. The UK’s offer on citizens rights is set out in the policy paper “Safeguarding the position of EU citizens in the UK and UK nationals in the EU” and seeks to ensure that EU citizens in the UK retain their rights to residence, benefits and pensions, and access to services, including healthcare and education. It makes clear that the UK expects reciprocity for UK nationals living in the EU in return for its offer which we believe is a fair and serious one.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 24/07/2017 14:50:16 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
