The Government understands the importance of mobility to the creative industries. That is why we have proposed reciprocal mobility arrangements with the EU that support businesses to provide services and move their talented people. We also want to discuss how to facilitate the temporary mobility of self-employed professionals and employees providing services.<\/p>
The Political Declaration agreed between the UK and the EU negotiating parties specifically acknowledges the importance of mobility for cultural cooperation. The detail of our reciprocal mobility arrangements will be discussed in the next phase of negotiations. In line with procedure under Article 50, these negotiations will not commence until after the UK leaves the EU and we will aim to have arrangements in place at the end of the Implementation Period.<\/p>

We have set out our proposed legal text to underpin the Implementation Period, a significant step towards agreement in March. Our text is designed to support the ongoing negotiation on the implementation period and puts forward practical solutions which will help deliver a smooth exit.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government has been clear that this period will be based on the existing structure of EU rules and regulations [or EU law]. Therefore as adequacy decisions are made by the EU during the implementation period they will apply in UK law. Moreover, the EU (Withdrawal) Bill will convert the existing body of EU data protection law into UK law, this will enable transfers to be made in accordance with the twelve existing adequacy decisions.<\/p>
<\/p>
The UK position on the EU\u2019s international agreements, that they should continue to apply to the UK during the implementation period, was set out in a Technical Note, published on 8th February. This is a matter for continued discussion with the EU.<\/p>

As the Prime Minister has said, we would welcome an agreement to continue to collaborate with our European partners on major science, research, and technology initiatives. We have been clear that we want to create an environment in which the UK as a whole can continue to be a world leader in research, science and the tertiary education sector more broadly.
UK businesses and universities should continue to bid for competitive EU funds while we remain a member of the EU and we will work with the Commission to ensure payment when funds are awarded. The Treasury will underwrite the payment of such awards, even when specific projects continue beyond the UK\u2019s departure from the EU.
Whatever happens in the future, the Government is committed to ensuring the UK remains a world leader in international research and innovation.

Officials across Government are carrying out a programme of sectoral and regulatory analysis, which will identify the key factors for UK businesses and the labour force that will affect our negotiations with the EU. They are looking in detail at over 50 sectors as well as cross-cutting regulatory issues. This work includes looking at science and research.
As the Prime Minister has said, we would welcome an agreement to continue to collaborate with our European partners on major science, research, and technology initiatives.
