The Minister for Europe (Mr David Lidington)
During the debate on the European Union Referendum Bill in the House of Lords, my right hon. Friend the Minister of State, Baroness Anelay of St Johns, said that the Government would, in due course, provide information about the application of Article 50 of the Treaty of the European Union (Official Report, col 475, 23 November 2015). To fulfil this commitment my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs has today laid in both Houses copies of a Command Paper The process for withdrawing from the European Union (Cm 9216).
This paper is also available on the www.gov.uk website.
