answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/07/2019 answer text <p>The Government has consulted with Members from all sides of the House on a range of issues relating to the UK’s withdrawal from, and future relationship with the EU.</p><p>If the UK leaves the EU without a deal, the UK would implement a temporary tariff regime that takes a balanced approach to support the UK economy as a whole. It will maintain open trade on the majority of UK imports, to support consumers and business supply chains, but retain necessary tariff protection for particular sectors of the UK economy. This would apply for up to 12 months while a full consultation, and review on a permanent approach, is undertaken.</p><p>As a responsible government we’ve been preparing to minimise any disruption in the event of no deal for over three years. We remain focused on ensuring our smooth and orderly withdrawal from the EU.</p> answering member constituency Braintree answering member printed James Cleverly question first answered 15/07/2019 16:08:25 answering member 4366 label Biography information for James Cleverly

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/05/2019 answer text <p>It remains Government policy to leave the EU with a deal as soon as possible. We do not want to leave the EU without a deal and it is also clear that there is no Parliamentary majority for pursuing this outcome. However ‘no deal’ remains the legal default on 31 October and we continue to prepare for such a scenario.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Braintree answering member printed James Cleverly question first answered 21/05/2019 12:33:28 answering member 4366 label Biography information for James Cleverly

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/04/2019 answer text <p>We do not need to be part of the EU to have strong protections or high standards and the UK already goes beyond EU minimum standards in a number of areas. In addition, the government has made a commitment not to reduce the standards of workers’ rights from EU laws retained in UK law and will ensure that new legislation changing those laws will be assessed as to whether they uphold this commitment. Any future changes in relation to rights and protections will be subject to the appropriate parliamentary scrutiny – with Parliament and the electorate continuing to hold the Government to account.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Spelthorne answering member printed Kwasi Kwarteng question first answered 11/04/2019 12:11:09 answering member 4134 label Biography information for Kwasi Kwarteng
