Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, if he will place a copy of any government impact assessment on the effect of leaving the EU on the construction sector in the Library.

Parliament has voted repeatedly not to disclose material that could damage the United Kingdom’s position in its negotiations with the European Union. My Department has been involved in ongoing cross-government analysis of the potential impacts of EU exit. Until advised further by Government, disclosing further information would risk undermining our negotiating position with the EU.
