Our Embassies engage regularly with British citizens living in their host Member States. Particularly since the EU Referendum, we have been reaching out to UK nationals in the EU at frequent meetings, events and online. We are encouraging UK nationals to follow the ‘UK nationals in the EU’ page on <a href="http://www.gov.uk/" target="_blank">www.gov.uk</a> and to follow Embassy social media channels for the latest information on the UK’s withdrawal from the EU. We are also planning for a further EU-wide public communications campaign for UK nationals in the EU when the practical implications of the Withdrawal Agreement have been finalised.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 07/03/2018 14:32:32 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin
