Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment his Department has made of the potential for delays to services departing the Eurostar terminal at London St Pancras station in the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal.

The Government, as part of responsible planning for all scenarios, has analysed the potential for disruption at St Pancras station in the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal, including consideration of the impact on Eurostar services. That work has shown the potential for disruption in certain worst case scenarios, which has helped to inform our contingency planning work. Industry, working with Government and other stakeholders, are in advanced stages of ensuring that plans are in place to effectively mitigate these risks.
