answer text <p>The UK Government has been clear that it wants to maintain the Common Travel Area (CTA) and protect associated rights enjoyed by British and Irish citizens. The right to work, study, and access social security and public services will be preserved on a reciprocal basis for UK and Irish nationals. The UK Government, Irish Government, and European Union all agree that the UK and Ireland can maintain these arrangements and this has been reflected in the Joint Report between the UK and the EU. I have written to Lord Alton of Liverpool setting out the detail of these arrangements and this letter has been placed in the library of the house.</p> more like this

answer text <p>We are within touching distance of reaching political agreement on the citizens' rights aspects of the Withdrawal Agreement, including on residence status and social security. <br><br>The UK Government's position is that to provide certainty on residence, all EU citizens lawfully residing within the UK with five years residence at a specified date, which is no earlier than the trigger of Article 50, and no later than the UK’s exit from the EU, will be able to apply for settled status. Those EU citizens with less than five years lawful residence who arrive before the specified date will be given time to stay until they have the five years of residency necessary to obtain UK settled status.<br><br>For EU citizens in the UK with rights protected under the Withdrawal Agreement, those on the pathway to settled status will continue to be able to access the same benefits that they can access now (broadly, equal access for workers/the self-employed and limited access for those not working). Once they are granted settled status, EU citizens will have access to benefits on the same basis as comparable UK nationals. Following the UK's withdrawal from the EU, access to benefits for those EU citizens protected by the Withdrawal Agreement will mirror any future changes potentially made to UK nationals’ entitlement. This means that an EU citizen protected by the Withdrawal Agreement will be no better or worse off than a UK national and will continue to enjoy equivalent access to benefits.</p>
