Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :
To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, how many meetings his Department has had with Ministers and officials in the Scottish Government since the triggering of Article 50.
The Government has been engaging with the Scottish Government throughout the negotiation process. This has included bilateral and multilateral engagement at both ministerial and official level. The Joint Ministerial Committee on EU Negotiations met most recently in October, when it discussed priorities for the future relationship with the EU and agreed the principles that will underpin common UK frameworks. A list of ministerial meetings is published with each quarterly transparency return.
We are committed to positive and productive engagement with the Scottish Government as we seek a deal that works for the entire United Kingdom.
