We will pursue a deep and special partnership with the EU taking in both economic and security cooperation. As a priority we will seek a bold and ambitious Free Trade Agreement that is of greater scope and ambition than any such existing agreement.<\/p>
As we have made clear in our future partnership paper, we believe the UK and EU should continue to consult each other on foreign and security policy issues and agree joint positions, so that we can speak out together and drive progress on areas in our mutual interest. As an example, we should look to coordinate action, and share information, on sanctions policy when needed in order to respond robustly to those who challenge the rules-based international order, as we have recently done effectively in the case of Russia and Iran. We are clear that we want the EU to succeed: a successful EU, with the UK as its closest partner, is in all of our shared interests.<\/p>
We want to have the greatest possible tariff- and barrier-free trade with our European neighbours, as well as to negotiate our own trade agreements around the world. We want to ensure that UK companies have the maximum freedom to trade with and operate within European markets \u2013 and to let European businesses do the same in the UK.<\/p>

The Government Cyber Essentials Assurance Framework provides organisations with a framework that provides a set of basic security controls for IT systems and an assurance framework that assesses against common cyber threats. It is therefore designed to allow an organisation to achieve certification and does not apply to individuals.<\/p>
The Department for Exiting the European Union uses capabilities provided by other Government Departments and the Memorandum of Understanding between the Department and its OGD supplier stipulates that they must adhere to HMG security practices and certification.<\/p>
Any technology based procurement undertaken by the department must meet HMG policies on Cyber Security and proof is requested as part of the tender process.<\/p>

We fully recognise the importance of the UK\u2019s machinery sector. The Government\u2019s objective remains to secure trade with Europe that is tariff-free and as frictionless as possible in all sectors, including in heavy machinery. We will pursue an ambitious and comprehensive free trade agreement with the EU to achieve this. This includes zero tariffs on trade in goods and minimising the regulatory and market access barriers for both goods and services.<\/p>
We will need to build a bridge from our exit to our future partnership, to allow business time to adjust, and to allow new systems to be put in place. Therefore we are proposing a time-limited implementation period where we continue to have access to one another\u2019s markets on current terms. We expect this to last for a period of around two years. We are pressing to agree this as early as possible, so as to provide certainty but will of course be subject to ongoing negotiations.<\/p>

The Department has held numerous meetings with representatives from the business community since the Referendum in June last year. This has included over 300 individual meetings, roundtables and other types of engagement with all sectors of the economy and in every region of the UK. The insight and analysis provided as a result of this close dialogue is incredibly valuable in supporting the Government\u2019s objective to agree a comprehensive new partnership with the EU, ensuring business can continue to access European markets while recognising the indivisibility of the EU\u2019s four freedoms.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4091", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Robin Walker"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Worcester"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Robin Walker"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-10-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-10-20T15:14:02.043Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "203"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Exiting the European Union "} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Exiting the European Union "} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-10-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "UK Trade with EU"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, what representations he has received from (a) businesses and (b) business organisations on the relationship the UK should have with the single market after the UK leaves the EU.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4061", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Bill Esterson"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Sefton Central"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Bill Esterson"} ], "uin" : "107461"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1149888", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Exiting the European Union "} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1149888/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Government values international exchange and collaboration in education and training.<\/p>
Under the terms of the Withdrawal Agreement, the UK would continue to take part in current EU programmes, including Erasmus+, for the duration of the transition period. Any participation beyond this would be a matter for upcoming negotiations on our future relationship with the EU. While the regulations for future EU programmes are still in the process of being developed, the Political Declaration envisages the possibility of UK participation in EU programmes like Erasmus+ and the negotiation of general terms of participation.<\/p>
In the event that the UK leaves the EU with no agreement in place, the Government\u2019s guarantee will cover the payment of awards to UK applicants for all successful Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps bids submitted before the end of 2020. Furthermore, the Commission\u2019s Erasmus+ contingency regulation establishes that Key Action 1 mobilities, that are ongoing when the UK withdraws from the EU, do not have to be interrupted, even in a \u2018no deal\u2019 scenario. <\/strong><\/ins>This means UK Erasmus+ students already abroad will be able to complete their study placements.<\/p> <\/p>"}

In 2016, the UK imported £242 billion of goods from EU Member States. This reinforces the value of a deep and special economic partnership between the UK and the EU.<\/p> The Government\u2019s position paper Continuity in the availability of goods for the EU and the UK<\/em> (21 August 2017) sets out proposals designed to avoid disruption for businesses and consumers in regard the availability of goods, including imports, as the UK leaves the EU. Over recent months, we have held constructive discussions with the European Commission on these specific issues.<\/p> The paper also emphasises the UK\u2019s ambitions for a future partnership with the EU that secures the freest and most frictionless trade possible in goods and services. The terms of our trading relationship with the EU after we leave are a matter for the negotiations on our future relationship, however we are confident that a future partnership between the UK and the EU is in the interest of both sides, so we approach the negotiations anticipating success.<\/p> <\/p>"}
