Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment he has made of the economic effect of leaving the Customs Union on trade in goods and services in each region and nation of the UK.

The Government is undertaking a wide range of ongoing analysis, across a range of scenarios on a sector by sector basis, in support of our EU exit negotiations and preparations. However, this analysis is sensitive in the context of negotiations with the EU.

Ministers have a specific responsibility, which Parliament has endorsed, not to release information that would undermine our negotiating position.

The Government has confirmed that when we bring forward the vote on the final deal, we will ensure that Parliament is presented with the appropriate analysis to make an informed decision.
