answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/07/2015 answer text <p>Such estimates do not exist at the current time. The commitment to restrict access to benefits for four years is intended to ensure that EU migrants make a sustained economic contribution to the UK before they can take something out. The Government is also concerned to ensure that national welfare systems do not provide an unintended additional incentive for large migratory movements. For these reasons reforming access to benefits for mobile EU nationals is one of our priorities for the renegotiation and the Prime Minister is working with his European partners to achieve this.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 13/07/2015 13:23:33 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/06/2015 answer text <p>The Government has a clear mandate to improve Britain’s relationship with the rest of the EU, and to reform the EU so that it creates jobs and increases living standards for all its citizens. As the Chancellor of the Exchequer has noted, the best outcome for the UK economy is that we achieve major economic reform of the EU. The Prime Minister is focused on success: he believes he can and will succeed in reforming and renegotiating our relationship with the EU and campaigning to keep the UK in the EU on that basis.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South West Hertfordshire answering member printed Mr David Gauke question first answered 25/06/2015 15:04:20 answering member 1529 label Biography information for Mr David Gauke
