answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/01/2019 answer text <p>​The Government regrets the US decision to withdraw from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPoA) nuclear deal and re-impose sanctions on Iran. Humanitarian goods are not subject to either US or EU sanctions. We are, nevertheless, working with our European partners on mechanisms to support continued trade in humanitarian goods, such as pharmaceutical exports. Following the re-imposition of US sanctions in November 2018 it is too early to make an assessment of the effect on public health outcomes in Iran.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 09/01/2019 14:58:57 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/01/2019 answer text <p>Delivering the deal negotiated with the EU remains the Government's top priority. This has not changed. While our focus remains on securing agreement with the EU, the Ministry of Defence, like the rest of Government, is also preparing for &quot;No Deal&quot;. This planning is focused on ensuring that our supply chains are resilient and to minimise disruption to our bases and people in Europe.</p><p>In a No Deal scenario, the UK would have to withdraw from Common Security and Defence Policy missions and operations - both military and civilian, and associated personnel seconded to the EU institutions. The UK would continue to act through other multilateral fora, including through the UN and NATO. Similarly, the UK would not be able to participate in research and industrial cooperation or projects through the European Defence Agency, European Defence Fund, or Permanent Structured Cooperation. The UK would continue to support our defence industrial base: the UK has the largest defence budget in Europe and the UK's defence market is one of the most open and competitive in the world.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Milton Keynes North answering member printed Mark Lancaster question first answered 09/01/2019 14:29:05 answering member 1544 label Biography information for Lord Lancaster of Kimbolton
