Written Question
Brexit
Wednesday 7th February 2018

Asked by: Craig Mackinlay (Conservative - South Thanet)

Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, whether the proposed transition arrangements mean the UK will still be a member of the European Union after 29 March 2019.

Answered by Robin Walker

As the Prime Minister said in Florence, the United Kingdom will cease to be a member of the European Union on 29th March 2019. This delivers on the wishes of the British public and does not change because of the implementation period.
