The UK recognises that access to any IT system does not come without cost, and it is right that we pay those costs that the rest of the EU would necessarily incur in providing for access to those systems. The Withdrawal Agreement sets out that the UK will pay the actual costs of providing access to those systems and therefore the amount that the UK will pay will depend on the amount that the systems are used.<\/p>

The Withdrawal Agreement establishes a number of forums in which the Protocol will be considered or overseen: a Joint Committee, a Specialised Committee on the Northern Ireland Protocol, and a Joint Consultative Working Group.<\/p>
The Joint Committee, the Specialised Committee and the Joint Consultative Working Group will be comprised of representatives of the UK and the EU. Their detailed rules of procedure have not yet been finalised. While the formal representation of the UK in international forums is and will continue to be a matter for the UK Government, we fully recognise the importance of reflecting the interests of the whole of the Northern Ireland community on issues relating to the Northern Ireland Protocol.<\/p>

As the Prime Minister has said, we will always negotiate on behalf of the whole UK family, including Gibraltar, at the Joint Committee including any consultation as set out in Article 169. Decisions on representation to the specialised committees will be taken in accordance with Article 165(3) of the Withdrawal Agreement. As the Chief Minister of Gibraltar told the House of Lords EU Committee on 23rd October, the UK has worked \u201chand in glove\u201d with Gibraltar to ensure the Prime Minister\u2019s commitment to fully involve Gibraltar \u201cbecame a reality\u201d.<\/p>

All people in the United Kingdom are able to access the National Health Service. However, since the UK has a residency based healthcare system, charges for most non-primary care services will apply to those people that are neither ordinarily resident in the UK, nor exempt from charge under the NHS (Charges to Overseas Visitors) Regulations 2015, as amended.<\/p>
<\/p>
European Union citizens who are currently ordinarily resident in the UK are treated in the same way as ordinarily resident UK nationals for the purpose of receiving NHS-funded healthcare. There is no requirement for European Economic Area nationals to have a \u2018right to reside\u2019 in the UK under the Free Movement Directive, nor to exercise treaty rights or hold Comprehensive Sickness Insurance, in order to meet the ordinary residence definition.<\/p>
<\/p>
For EU citizens resident in the UK by the end of the implementation period and in scope of the Withdrawal Agreement, their entitlement to free NHS services will not change, as long as they continue to be ordinarily resident in the UK.<\/p>
<\/p>
When EU citizens living in the UK apply to the EU settlement scheme for UK immigration status, they will not be required to demonstrate they have held comprehensive sickness insurance as a qualifying criteria. The settlement scheme will be open to all EU citizens resident in the UK by 31 December 2020, including EU citizens studying in the UK. Those granted pre- or settled status under the settlement scheme will continue to have access to the NHS as long as they are ordinarily resident in the UK and therefore be able to access care as a UK national would.<\/p>
<\/p>
EU students in the UK at the end of the implementation period will also have a European Health Insurance Card. Under the Withdrawal Agreement they can continue to use this during their stay to access needs arising healthcare.<\/p>
