Question to the Attorney General:

To ask the Attorney General, whether the Law Officers' Departments were consulted by the Department for Exiting the European Union on the economic impact assessments conducted for the UK leaving the EU.

The Government is carrying out an ongoing programme of comprehensive analytical work that will inform our negotiating position with the EU, to define our deep and special partnership with the EU and inform our understanding of how EU exit will affect the UK’s domestic policies and frameworks.

The Law Officers’ Departments are working with officials across government, in close coordination with the Department for Exiting the European Union, to ensure the delivery of a co-ordinated programme of analysis across government.
