<p>Leaving the EU, with or without a deal, will not affect our commitment to the Sustainable
Development Goals. The UK’s first Voluntary National Review (VNR) will be published
shortly. The VNR will review UK action both domestically and internationally in support
of Goal 11. It will also outline key challenges and next steps, recognising that while
progress is being made, there is more work to do.</p><p>The UK and the EU have agreed
the terms of the UK’s smooth and orderly exit from the EU in the form of the Withdrawal
Agreement, and a detailed political declaration on the terms of our future relationship
which will support the Government's commitment to meeting the full range of Sustainable
Development Goals. However, the Government will continue to do the responsible thing
and prepare for all eventualities. This includes the potential impact of a no deal
scenario on the full range of government priorities. This Government has been clear
that we do not want or expect a ‘no deal’ scenario, but whatever the outcome of our
future relationship we remain committed to supporting the delivery of the Sustainable
Development Goals both domestically and internationally.</p>
