EU: Future Trade Agreement

Earl of Clancarty Excerpts

Wednesday 29th July 2020 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Scott of Bybrook]

I am very sorry, my Lords, I cannot answer that but I will write to the noble Lord. As far as security issues are concerned, we have made it clear to the EU negotiators that we are open to co-operation on all security measures.

[The Earl of Clancarty (CB) [V]]

My Lords, we still hear little mention of services from the Government, even though trade in services was on the agenda in the latest round of negotiations. What progress has been made on a deal for services that is advantageous to UK workers?

[Baroness Scott of Bybrook]

The deal on services is tied up with the deal on trade, and negotiating those deals will continue throughout the summer.
