Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, to list each external economist who has met staff of his Department's Planning and Analysis Directorate.

Ministers and officials from across Government regularly engage with a range of external experts and other stakeholders to understand their concerns and priorities regarding our EU exit.

In line with Cabinet Office guidance, it is not standard practice to provide details of official level meetings. Details of Ministerial and senior officials’ meetings are published in the Department’s transparency returns on gov.uk: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications?departments%5B%5D=department-for-exiting-the-european-union&publication_type=transparency-data
