Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he has received representations on minting a coin with a date different from 31 October 2019 to commemorate the UK leaving the EU.

The Royal Mint has a long-established tradition of producing coins in order to commemorate historic moments, including the 2012 Olympics, the UK’s accession to the European Economic Community, and the centenary of the First World War. The commemorative 50p to mark the UK leaving the European Union will be made available following the UK’s departure.
