Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what progress is being made in the development of a youth mobility scheme between the UK and the EU; and when they expect such a scheme to be introduced.

We have agreed that we will work towards the establishment of a balanced youth experience scheme with the EU. We have agreed that any scheme will be capped as well as time-limited. We have also been clear that it should be in line with the UK’s existing schemes with countries like Australia and New Zealand. The exact parameters will be subject to discussion in the next phase of the negotiations.
