Ministerial CorrectionsI am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for highlighting the sectoral work relating to 58 areas of activity, which deals with how trade is currently conducted with the EU and what the alternatives might be. I can say that Northern Ireland has contributed to the cross-Government work at an official level, and the hon. Gentleman will be well aware of the commitments that DExEU has made in relation to the publication of that ongoing work. [Official Report, 15 November 2017, Vol. 631, c. 346.]
Letter of correction from James Brokenshire.
An error has been identified in the response I gave to the hon. Member for Ealing North (Stephen Pound).
The correct response should have been:
I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for highlighting the sectoral work relating to 58 areas of activity, which deals with how trade is currently conducted with the EU and what the alternatives might be. The NIO contributes to a wide range of analysis on the impact of EU Exit, although the specific sectoral reports were produced by other Government Departments, co-ordinated by the Department for Exiting the EU.
