Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the statement made by Baroness Goldie on 17 October (HL Deb, col 511), what undertakings they have provided to the devolved administrations to seek to negotiate with the EU in such a way as to serve the interests of the devolved administrations and the people they represent.


This question was answered on 27th October 2017

As the Prime Minister has set out, as we leave the EU we are committed to securing a deal that works for the entire United Kingdom - for Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and all parts of England.

The Secretary of State is regularly engaging with ministers from the Scottish and Welsh Governments. The meeting of the Joint Ministerial Committee on EU Negotiations, chaired by the First Secretary of State on 16 October, was the latest opportunity for the devolved administrations to contribute to this process.
