answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/07/2019 answer text <p>As a responsible Government, we've been preparing to minimise any disruption in the event of a no deal for nearly three years. We are putting in place a range of mitigations, these include a central team who deal exclusively with Defence issues relating to the UK's decision to leave the EU, including preparations for a no deal scenario. This team draws on subject matter experts from across the department and works with colleagues in other government departments on cross-cutting issues.</p><p>The Treasury has allocated over £4.2 billion of additional funding to departments and Devolved Administrations for EU exit preparations so far. This breaks down as £412 million over the spending review period for the Department for Exiting the European Union, the Department for International Trade and the Foreign &amp; Commonwealth Office (Autumn Statement 2016); £286 million of additional funding for 2017-18 (a full breakdown of which can be found in Supplementary Estimates 2017-18); over £1.5 billion for 2018-19 (Supplementary Estimates 2018-19); and over £2 billion for 2019-20 (Main Estimates 2019-20).</p><p>This funding is to cover all exit scenarios and is in addition to departmental efforts to reprioritise from business as usual toward preparations for the UK's departure from the EU. Work on no-deal exit preparations cannot be readily separated from other EU exit work, given the significant overlap in plans in many cases.</p> answering member constituency Milton Keynes North answering member printed Mark Lancaster question first answered 09/07/2019 15:25:22 answering member 1544 label Biography information for Lord Lancaster of Kimbolton

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2018 answer text The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has a small central team who have been appointed to deal exclusively with Defence issues relating to the UK's decision to leave the EU. This team draws on a range of colleagues from across the MOD who support EU exit related work, in addition to their normal duties. Given the interactions between EU exit work and the MOD's other priorities it is not possible to provide an accurate assessment of these costs. answering member constituency Milton Keynes North answering member printed Mark Lancaster question first answered 11/09/2018 10:11:51 answering member 1544 label Biography information for Lord Lancaster of Kimbolton
