uin	HL11663
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
