Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how much his Department is spending on a public information campaign to prepare people for the potential effects of the UK leaving the EU without a deal.

The Government has a duty to inform citizens and businesses about how leaving the EU might affect them, and to advise on the steps they may need to take to prepare for EU Exit.

Cabinet Office has developed a cross-departmental public information campaign to help achieve this. Over the coming weeks, departments will be using a range of channels to direct UK citizens, businesses, EU citizens living in the UK and UK nationals living in the EU to a dedicated area on GOV.UK at Gov.uk/euexit

Information on the costs associated with this campaign will be released in due course as part of normal data transparency releases
