Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, in the light of the statement by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government on <i>Question Time</i> on 3 November, whether it is their view that the bringing of a court case on the triggering of Article 50 was an attempt to frustrate the will of the British people and was unacceptable.

The Government believes in and values the independence of our judiciary, the foundation upon which our rule of law is built. In respect of the ongoing litigation over the process for invoking Article 50, the Government disagrees with the Court's judgment and will appeal it at the Supreme Court.
