The Government\u2019s approach throughout this process has been to seek to agree all of the issues related to our withdrawal from the European Union. The agreement that we have reached on citizens\u2019 rights is the only way of fully protecting the rights of all citizens.<\/p>
The Prime Minister has been clear that EU citizens resident in the UK by the 29 March will be able to stay and have their rights protected. We published the Citizens\u2019 rights: EU citizens and UK nationals policy paper on 6 December, which sets out further details of our offer to citizens in a no deal.<\/p>
We are engaging Member States and urging them to reciprocate this offer for UK citizens in full.<\/p>

A central list is not held in the form requested, but the Government remains confident of ensuring a functioning statute book for exit day.<\/p>

In light of that advice, the Home Secretary has decided that further detailed consideration is required on how best to tighten controls on high energy rifles.
