Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many civil servants in his Department are currently working on planning for the UK leaving the EU without a deal; and how many have been moved from other projects to work on those plans.

The approximate total number of people working on EU exit across the MoJ is 110. The MoJ EU exit programme includes work on both deal and no-deal scenarios in preparation for the UK exit from the EU.
