Civil servants from across Whitehall are working on a variety of projects and policy areas to support the United Kingdom\u2019s exit from the European Union.<\/p>

Further to this, it should be noted that the Department does not record expenditure on specific activities; it records expenditure on a functional basis. It is, therefore, not possible for the Department to attribute staff costs to specific projects or activities.<\/p>

We have agreed the terms of our exit from the European Union, as set out in the Withdrawal Agreement. This, along with Political Declaration on the Future Relationship, was agreed by the EU member states at the special European Council on Sunday 25 November and will now be voted on in Parliament.<\/p>
The Withdrawal Agreement offers certainty to universities and other UK recipients of EU research funding programmes, including Horizon 2020, by providing for continued UK participation until the current programmes end in 2020, including where funding agreed before the end of the implementation period extends beyond 2020. UK based organisations and individuals will be able to bid for funding, participate in and lead consortia, until programme closure, replacing the need for the government\u2019s existing funding guarantee.<\/p>
We want to build on the progress made in recent negotiations and continue to pursue a far-reaching relationship on science and innovation with the EU, which is mutually beneficial for the UK, the EU, our scientific communities, and our citizens. The Political Declaration is a significant milestone towards the future relationship, and sets out that we will establish general principles, terms and conditions for the UK\u2019s participation in Union programmes, including on science and innovation, and wider dialogue.<\/p>

Government departments make use of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) when structuring their engagements on preparations for leaving the EU, which is a crucial component of planning. It is for departments to determine the manner in which engagement with stakeholders takes place. Given the sensitive nature of some discussions, there may be limited circumstances in which departments have used NDAs to enable those conversations, thereby reaching more stakeholders than would otherwise be the case.<\/p>
As I said in my previous answer, this department has put a limited number of NDAs in place in the course of its work. The department\u2019s use of NDAs is limited to standard contractual arrangements with those providing services to support our work and are necessary to protect commercial considerations.<\/p>
According to central records, the department has six current NDAs covering standard contractual arrangements with providers for activity including media monitoring, consultancy and research. Once awarded, we endeavour to adhere to cross-government guidance by publishing all contracts on the Contracts Finder within 90 days of award.<\/p>"}

Government departments make use of non-disclosure agreements when structuring engagements with businesses or other organisations on preparations for leaving the EU.<\/p>
They are also a common component of contractual arrangements that are used to protect commercial considerations of the parties involved or to protect sensitives around the development of Government policy.<\/p>
It is entirely normal practice to use such agreements and they are therefore sometimes necessary for Government departments who are responsible for managing their preparations for leaving the EU. This department has put a limited number of non-disclosure agreements in place in the course of its work.<\/p>
