The Department for International Development is working in close collaboration with other government departments in preparation for the ongoing negotiations by understanding the risks and opportunities of leaving the EU and coordinating planning. Given the interactions between EU exit work and the Department’s other priorities, it would not be possible to give an accurate figure, but I would encourage you to consult our annual reports and accounts when they become available.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 10/09/2018 16:16:40 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2018 answer text <p>As we continue to make progress in negotiations, we are increasingly confident that we will secure a deal with the EU and in recent months the prospect of leaving negotiations with ‘no deal’ has receded significantly. However, as a responsible government we are preparing for all possible outcomes. Departments’ plans are well developed and are designed to respond to all scenarios, including the unlikely possibility that we leave the EU without a deal in place. Some delivery of contingency plans has already become evident, and more will become public over the coming weeks and months. Parliament has been regularly updated on these preparations for ‘no deal’ and we will continue to provide updates.</p> answering member printed Lord Callanan grouped question UIN HL9417 HL9418 HL9419 HL9420 HL9422 HL9472 HL9473 HL9474 HL9475 HL9476 HL9477 HL9536 HL9537 HL9538 HL9539 HL9540 HL9541 question first answered 25/07/2018 15:37:52 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan

uin	120825
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/01/2018 answer text <p>EU Exit is an all-of-government operation. The Department for International Development is doing detailed work with departments to prepare for Exit by understanding the risks and opportunities of leaving the EU and coordinating planning. Staff within the Europe and Trade for Development teams lead on providing advice to Ministers on EU Exit and exit-related issues. Members of staff across the Department also provide advice and analysis on EU Exit issues as required. Given the interactions between EU exit work and the Department’s other priorities, it would not be possible to give an accurate estimate of the time and resources that have been allocated to the production of impact assessments on the UK leaving the EU.</p><p>Impact Assessments are typically related to specific new primary legislation before Parliament and are narrowly defined. Civil servants conduct any Impact Assessments related to legislation as business as usual. The Government laid an impact assessment alongside the European Union (Withdrawal) Bill, which can be found on our website. Our broader analysis continues.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 09/01/2018 11:33:58 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
