uin	HL12034
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/12/2018 answer text <p>We believe NATO needs to move faster on implementing the International Board of Auditors for NATO (IBAN) recommendations. Some progress is being made. As a result of the recent Functional Review of the NATO HQ nations have agreed additional resources to address areas of weakness identified in risk management, internal audit and internal control. But there is currently no consensus among allies on how to proceed with IBAN’s Financial Performance audit recommendations. We have requested a NATO scoping paper setting out how the organisation intends to address some of the points raised and will continue to press for faster progress on implementing IBAN recommendations.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 18/12/2018 14:18:52 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

It also states that “It should facilitate trade and investment between the Parties to the extent possible, while respecting the integrity of the Union's Single Market and the Customs Union as well as the United Kingdom's internal market, and recognising the development of an independent trade policy by the United Kingdom beyond this economic partnership.” Goods exported from the UK to the EU following the transition period will be subject to arrangements that are consistent with these objectives and principles.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Fairhead question first answered 10/12/2018 12:16:23 answering member 4690 label Biography information for Baroness Fairhead
