This makes Euratom and the EU uniquely legally joined. Therefore, on withdrawal from the EU, the UK will also be withdrawing from the Euratom Community.

The shape of the UK’s future relationship with Euratom is subject to negotiations with the EU and our aim, throughout these negotiations, will be to maintain our mutually successful civil nuclear cooperation with Euratom and the rest of the world.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 04/08/2017 12:34:57 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
