Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment his Department has made of the potential effect of the UK leaving the EU without a deal on school suppliers listed as part of Operation Kingfisher.

The Government is monitoring businesses and sectors across the country to help ensure they are fully prepared for when the UK exits the EU. The Department is considering how best to support them in the event of a no deal. The Department has been clear that should there be no deal, we would support the economy through whatever appropriate action is needed.
