Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many staff in his Department are working on preparations at major ports for the UK leaving the EU on 31 October 2019 without a deal.
The number of people working on EU Exit within the Department, including staff working on preparations at major ports for the UK leaving the EU on 31 October without a deal, can change in accordance with priorities. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a breakdown of staff numbers due to staff working on a variety of areas relating to EU Exit in parallel with each other.
