Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :
To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the answer by the Secretary of State for Exiting the EU on 1 December (HC Deb, col 1648), whether they are considering making continuing financial contributions to the EU budget following the UK’s exit from the EU in order to continue trading with EU countries; and, if so, why.
We are focussed on securing the best possible deal for the United Kingdom as we leave the European Union. Once we have left, it will be for the United Kingdom to decide how taxpayers' money is spent.
