answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/12/2018 answer text <p>Article 129 of the Withdrawal Agreement sets out how the UK and EU should cooperate under the European Union’s External Action, including in international organisations, during the Implementation Period. It applies to all international organisations where the UK and EU are actors. This includes the UN and its agencies, and other international bodies, such as OECD and OSCE. The UK will remain an active and effective international player. We will continue to have a strong independent voice in the UN as a P5 member, and across a range of other UN bodies, agencies and in other international fora. The Withdrawal Agreement will not change this position.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 03/12/2018 15:14:15 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/12/2018 answer text <p>Article 3 of the Withdrawal Agreement published on 26 November clearly states that Gibraltar is covered to the extent that Union Law applied to it before. Article 184, which records the UK and the EU’s commitment to negotiate in good faith and conclude agreements envisaged by the Political Declaration on their future relationship within a certain time frame, imposes no obligations regarding the territorial scope of future agreements. This is the EU and the UK’s shared interpretation. The government has also been clear that the UK will negotiate future agreements on behalf of all territories for whose external relations it is responsible.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Callanan question first answered 04/12/2018 13:57:53 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan
