Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :
To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, whether he plans to consult Parliament on the triggering of Article 50.
This question was answered on 27th July 2016
The British people have voted to leave the European Union and their will must be respected and delivered. While legally there is no obligation to consult Parliament on triggering Article 50, it will clearly have an important role in making sure that we find the best way forward.
