Question to the Northern Ireland Office:
What discussions her Department has had with the Department for Exiting the European Union on preparations for the UK leaving the EU.
Answered by Shailesh Vara
My Department has regular discussions with the Department for Exiting the European Union, at ministerial and official level, about a range of issues relating to the UK’s exit from the EU. This includes making sure that, as we leave the EU, we do so in a way that takes account of the unique circumstances of Northern Ireland.
