Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, if he will make an assessment of the prospects of securing an extension to Article 50 to provide more time to negotiate the UK’s departure from the EU.

It is not the Government’s policy to seek seeking to extend the Article 50 process. We will use all the time available to get the right agreement for the UK and one that works in the mutual interest of both sides.
