Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the Chequers proposals set out in the Government's White Paper entitled The future relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union, published in July 2018, whether the Government has made an assessment of the potential effect of the Chequers proposals on average net household income.

The Government’s proposals, as set out in the 12 July White Paper, are the best way to protect jobs and avoid a hard border between Ireland and Northern Ireland. With negotiations ongoing, it would not be practical or sensible to set out the details of exactly how the Government will assess the final deal. When we bring forward the vote on the final deal, Parliament will be presented with the appropriate analysis to make an informed decision.
