answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/01/2019 answer text <p>As set out in the ‘Rail Transport if there’s no Brexit deal’ technical notice, published by the Government in October 2018, the European Commission has indicated that, in the event of no deal, operator licences issued by the ORR (as the UK’s licensing authority) to operators currently operating in the EU would not remain valid in the EU after EU exit. However, the technical notice also made clear that arrangements for cross-border services would be subject to any bilateral arrangements that the UK negotiates with individual EU countries. On the basis of the productive discussions with relevant member states, we remain confident about concluding appropriate bilateral arrangements so that these mutually-beneficial cross border services continue.</p> answering member constituency Epsom and Ewell answering member printed Chris Grayling question first answered 29/01/2019 16:53:55 answering member 1413 label Biography information for Chris Grayling

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/11/2014 answer text <p>To date in 2014, the Ministry of Defence (MOD) has undertaken the following military assistance to units in Iraq: airstrikes, and accompanying surveillance, which have been critical to supporting the Iraqi security forces, including Kurdish Peshmerga; donated military equipment (such as rations and sleeping bags); and gifted 40 heavy machine guns and almost half a million rounds of ammunition. In addition, the UK has delivered weapons and ammunition from other coalition countries to Northern Iraq. Finally, UK personnel have been conducting training on the UK-gifted heavy machine guns near Erbil. Earlier in the year counter-improvised explosive device training was conducted by a private company, sponsored by three UK Government Departments, including the MOD.</p><p>No assistance has been given to Syrian Kurdish forces.</p> answering member constituency Rayleigh and Wickford answering member printed Mr Mark Francois question first answered 06/11/2014 17:31:40 answering member 1444 label Biography information for Mr Mark Francois previous answer version 26463 answering member constituency Rayleigh and Wickford answering member printed Mr Mark Francois answering member 1444 label Biography information for Mr Mark Francois
