Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what further assessment, if any, they have made following the report by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy The Impact of Brexit on the Automotive Sector.

The Government is undertaking a wide range of ongoing analysis in support of our EU exit negotiations and preparations.

We continue to engage with businesses and industry bodies from all sectors of the economy, and all regions and nations of the UK, in order to inform our negotiations.

However, it is not standard practice to provide a running commentary on ongoing analysis. In addition, ministers have a specific responsibility, which Parliament has endorsed, not to release information that would undermine our negotiating position.
