The Home Office has established three stakeholder groups on EU Exit Immigration issues. There are two user groups comprising representatives of EU citizens from community, advice and support networks, and consular representatives from the EU27 and EFTA nations. There is also a cross-sectoral employers\u2019 representative group. This engagement is supporting the development of the operational process and system design for the new EU Exit Settlement Scheme.<\/p>
We intend to launch the Scheme during the second half of 2018.<\/p>
To date the Home Office has received additional funding from HM Treasury of £60m over this financial year.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4009", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Brandon Lewis"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Great Yarmouth"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Brandon Lewis"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-12-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : {"_value" : "118481"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-12-14T16:27:04.393Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-12-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Immigration: EU Nationals"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the voluntary application process set out in paragraph 4 of the document Technical Note: Citizens' Rights - Administrative Procedures in the UK published on 7 November 2017, what the proposed timescale is for the roll-out of the new process; and if she will make a statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4470", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Alan Brown"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Kilmarnock and Loudoun"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Alan Brown"} ], "uin" : "118483"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/804423", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/804423/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The UK is a party to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) individually as well as through the EU and we are bound by all the obligations of the Paris Agreement under international law. This includes the requirement to prepare, communicate and maintain successive nationally determined contributions.<\/p>
<\/p>
The UK is firmly committed to the Paris Agreement and to our emissions reduction and climate finance efforts under it. We have demonstrated our commitment domestically \u2013 we were the first country to introduce legally binding emissions reduction targets through the Climate Change Act, and we have recently published our highly praised Clean Growth Strategy, which is ambitious and robust in setting out how we will decarbonise the UK economy through the 2020s.<\/p>
<\/p>
Leaving the EU will not affect our statutory commitments under our own domestic Climate Change Act and indeed our domestic binding emissions reduction targets are more ambitious than those set by EU legislation. Our Clean Growth Strategy includes the commitment that our future approach to tackling climate change is at least as ambitious as the current schemes we have in place.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Devolved Administrations were consulted in the formulation of many of the policies in the Clean Growth Strategy and in the development of EU legislation. We will continue to work with the Devolved Administrations as we develop and implement the policies and proposals that we have set out.<\/p>
