Lord Callanan
My noble friend is of course correct that it is the Government’s intention to get a deal. However, negotiations are ongoing and I am sure that he will understand, from his time in government, that we are unable to share confidential negotiating papers at the moment. He can rest assured that as soon as we get a deal, we will publish the full documentation.
Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Lab)
My Lords, can the Minister say whether the Government think that they would be abiding by the law if they were to send two letters instead of one?
Lord Callanan
I can see that noble Lords today have a great fondness for the work of the international post office. We will abide by the law.
