Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Deighton on 2 February (HL4233), whether using the British rebate to offset some of the £1.7 billion bill from the European Union will affect the amount of the further rebate available for other purposes; and if so, by how much.

The additional rebate which the UK will receive will not affect future rebate calculations in any way.
