Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Bethell on 11 February (HL606) and to the Written Statement by the Lord Privy Seal (Baroness Evans of Bowes Park) on 3 February (HLWS83), whether they will now answer the question put; and under which heading in the Written Statement the issues raised regarding (1) mutual recognition of driving licences, (2) participation in the European Health Insurance Card, and (3) mutual recognition of disability parking cards, will fall under for future negotiations with the EU.

The Government considers these topics under “Other Areas of Cooperation” in the Written Statement by the Lord Privy Seal (Baroness Evans of Bowes Park) on 3 February (HLWS83). The Government remains committed to keeping Parliament and the public informed. Further details will therefore be provided as the negotiating process develops.
