Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, what assessment his Department has made of the effect of leaving the single market and customs union on disadvantaged communities and people working in low-income and insecure jobs.

When the UK leaves the European Union, we will also the leave the EU Customs Union and develop and independent trade policy which benefits the whole country.

The Government is committed to negotiating a deep and special partnership with the European Union and is conducting a wide-ranging programme of analysis. It would not be appropriate, however, to publish details that could undermine the UK's negotiating position with the EU, and Parliament has voted not to publish such details.
