Written Question
Sanctions
Thursday 20th April 2017

Asked by: Lord Horam (Conservative - Life peer)

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the answer by the Foreign Secretary on 28 March (HC Deb, col 117), whether the forthcoming White Paper will concern (1) their policy approach to sanctions co-operation with the EU after Brexit, (2) the implementation of such measures, or (3) both; and when that White Paper will be published.

Answered by Baroness Anelay of St Johns

The White Paper is to be published very soon. As the Prime Minister has said, we will continue to work closely with our European allies in foreign and security policy. This includes our approach to sanctions, which are an important foreign policy tool.
