answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/02/2019 answer text <p>The UK and the EU have worked intensively together to get the best deal for businesses and citizens. Discussions with the EU on the UK’s continued relationship on cyber-related matters have been focused on achieving this and that is why the Political Declaration includes a commitment to promote security and stability in cyberspace through increased international cooperation. However, in the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal, the absence of this formal agreement does not affect the fact that it is still in our collective interest to continue to work closely on cyber-related matters and does not prevent a continued close relationship.</p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 14/02/2019 12:00:38 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
