It remains Government policy to leave the EU with a deal as soon as possible. We do not want to leave the EU without a deal and it is also clear that there is no Parliamentary majority for pursuing this outcome. However \u2018no deal\u2019 remains the legal default on 31 October and we continue to prepare for such a scenario.<\/p>

The earliest that the UK can leave without a deal is 31 October 2019. Our priority remains delivering the deal to ensure a smooth and orderly exit before this date. While we do not want to leave with no deal and Parliament has also voted against this outcome three times, it remains the legal default at the end of the extension period in the event a Withdrawal Agreement cannot be agreed. As a responsible government we\u2019ve been preparing to minimise any disruption in the event of no deal for over two years and will continue to prepare for all Brexit scenarios.<\/p>

The negotiated Withdrawal Agreement and Political Declaration outline the UK and EU\u2019s shared commitment to a free trade area for goods with no tariffs, quotas or rules of origin requirements. We are not seeking membership of the Single Market, or Customs Union, after we leave the EU, but a bold and ambitious economic partnership.<\/p>
The government has delivered on its commitment to provide appropriate analysis to Parliament with a robust, objective assessment of how exiting the EU may affect the economy of the UK, sectors, nations and regions in the long run. The analysis considers four analytical scenarios and compares them to today\u2019s arrangements: the UK position set out in the July 2018 White Paper, a hypothetical FTA, an EEA-type relationship and a no deal scenario.<\/p>

We remain focused on ensuring our smooth and orderly withdrawal from the EU with a deal as soon as possible. However, no deal remains the legal default at the end of the extension period.<\/p>

It is the Government\u2019s position that the Withdrawal Agreement is a good deal for the UK.<\/p>
Parliament has voted against no deal three times, and it is clear that there is no Parliamentary majority for leaving without a deal.<\/p>
We will continue to prepare for all Brexit scenarios. A bad deal would be one which did not deliver on the referendum result, or did not allow the UK to take back control of our laws, money, and borders. The withdrawal agreement achieves all of this, ensuring a good deal for British businesses and citizens.<\/p>

The Government has published extensive advice on the steps that businesses may need to take to prepare for our exit from the EU.
