<p>Safeguarding the rights of EU citizens living in the UK and UK nationals living
in the EU was our first priority for negotiations. The fair and reciprocal agreement
reached and set out in the draft legal text of the Withdrawal Agreement will provide
UK nationals in the EU with more certainty about their rights going forward.</p><p>The
UK is putting in place the administrative arrangements to implement the draft Withdrawal
Agreement on citizens’ rights in the Home Office’s EU Settlement Scheme. It is for
each Member State to determine how they will implement the Withdrawal Agreement to
secure the rights of UK nationals resident in their country, and we are working with
Member States to understand how they will do so. We will ensure that we communicate
to UK nationals living in the EU any changes to administrative procedures introduced
by Member States.</p><p> </p>
