<p>Information provided by the EEAS shows that as of 14 November 2018 there were a
total of 115 UK nationals working for the EEAS. Of these, 33 were seconded from the
UK civil service.</p><p>The EEAS has informed staff of UK nationality that all HMG
officials seconded to the EEAS will be required to end their role by 29 March 2019.
Permanent Officials employed by the EEAS with UK nationality will be able to continue
their employment in Headquarters in Brussels, but they will no longer be able to serve
in EU Delegations overseas.</p><p>As set out in the Government’s White Paper on the
future relationship between the UK and the EU, we hope to agree a programme for the
reciprocal exchange of expertise and skills as part of the future UK-EU partnership.
Our priority is agreeing mutually beneficial arrangements for the longer term, in
line with our overall future partnership with the EU.</p><p> </p>
