Written Question

Immigration: Scotland

Thursday 20th October 2016

Asked by: Owen Thompson (Scottish National Party - Midlothian)

Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, if he will devolve control over immigration to the Scottish Government as part of his negotiations on the UK leaving the EU.

Answered by David Jones

Immigration is a reserved matter. However, we are working closely with the Scottish Government and we will get the best possible deal for all parts of the United Kingdom as we leave the EU. We will give the Scottish Government every opportunity to have their say as we develop the negotiating strategy.
