Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what discussions he has had with the Irish government on the potential implications for economic growth (a) on the island of Ireland and (b) in Northern Ireland of the UK leaving the EU.

The Chancellor met his Irish counterpart on 22 September to discuss a range of issues relating to the UK’s EU exit. We look forward to working closely with the Irish Government and other key stakeholders as we develop our approach to this matter.
