Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether the UK is on target to meet the March 2019 deadline for withdrawal from the EU.

The Government has been clear that we will leave the EU in March 2019. We are working intensely with our EU counterparts in order to agree an implementation period, turn the Joint Report into legal text and to reach agreement on the entire Withdrawal Agreement by October. We are fully confident that we will reach a final deal which is in the interests of both the United Kingdom and the European Union.
