We remain focused on ensuring our smooth and orderly withdrawal from the EU with a deal. However, a responsible government prepares for all contingencies, and since the referendum.<\/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 £412m over the spending review period for the Department for Exiting the European Union, Department for International Trade and the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (Autumn Statement 2016); £286m 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>
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\u2019s 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>

HM Treasury does not hold information centrally on Loans/Secondments that have returned that have worked on other departmental briefs on preparations for the UK to leave the EU.<\/p>
<\/p>
We estimate that to search and locate any information held would exceed the appropriate limit, therefore can only be answered at a disproportionate cost.<\/p>
<\/p>
EU Exit is an all-of-government operation. The Department for Exiting the European Union is responsible for overseeing negotiations to leave the EU and establishing the future relationship between the UK and EU. The Department for International trade works to secure UK and global prosperity by promoting and financing international trade and investment, and championing free trade.<\/p>
<\/strong><\/p> <\/strong><\/p> Departments continually review workforce plans, reprioritise and assess changing needs, which includes identification and cessation of non-priority work where appropriate. We have accelerated our plans, and at the same time, the Civil Service as a whole is working to ensure that EU Exit Implementation is carried out to high quality without impacting public service delivery across the whole of government.<\/p>"}
