	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/04/2016 answer text <p>The Government's view is that the UK will be stronger, safer and better off in a reformed EU. Should the UK choose to stay in the EU, British citizens will be able to work, live and retire abroad as they do now. UK citizens and citizens from other Member States living in the UK get a range of rights from our membership of the EU. If the UK were to leave the EU, all of these rights would have to be covered in a successor arrangement. If we left the EU without agreeing what would happen to these rights, it would at the least bring them into serious question, creating difficulty for UK citizens who relied on them.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 25/04/2016 14:08:20 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
