answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/11/2018 answer text <p>Government Departments continue to engage with a wide range of businesses to understand their priorities and issues as we leave the European Union, both to inform our negotiating position, and our preparations in the unlikely event of there being no deal. NDAs are also a common component of contractual arrangements that are used to protect commercial considerations of the parties involved or to protect sensitives around the development of Government policy. It is entirely normal practice to use such agreements and they are therefore sometimes necessary for Government departments that are responsible for managing their preparations for leaving the EU.</p><p>For the Home Office, this is a complex cross cutting issue which has the potential to affect several Home Office business areas. Specific information relating to EU exit is not held centrally therefore we cannot give a definitive answer. However, to date the Home office has signed over a hundred NDA’s with ports to support EU exit preparations. Non-Disclosure Agreements with our key border delivery partners are crucial in supporting open exchanges of information and opinions about options and scenarios.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 27/11/2018 17:34:29 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes

Returns are only enforced where both the Home Office and the courts are satisfied that an individual has no right to remain in the UK.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 21/12/2018 17:15:34 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
