Exiting the European Union provides us with the opportunity to build on this world-leading reputation.<br><br>As the White Paper (The United Kingdom’s exit from and new partnership with the European Union) states, there are a number of EU agencies, such as the European Food Safety Agency, which have been established to support EU Member States and their citizens. These can be responsible for enforcing particular regulatory regimes, or for pooling knowledge and information sharing. As part of exit negotiations, the Government will discuss with the EU and Member States our future status and arrangements with regard to these agencies.

UK researchers can still apply for Horizon 2020 projects, with the certainty that any funding will be guaranteed by the UK Government for the cycle of the programme. The government has recently announced that EU students applying for a place at an English university or further education institution in the 2017 to 2018 academic year will continue to be eligible for student loans and grants – and will be for the duration of their course. The Prime Minister has been clear that during negotiations she wants to protect the status of EU nationals already living here, and the only circumstances in which that would not be possible is if British citizens’ rights in European member states were not protected in return.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 20/10/2016 15:58:28 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
