Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :
To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of employing nationals of other EU member states in his Department.
Answered by David Jones
There has been no change to the rights and status of EU nationals in the UK, or of British citizens in the EU, as a result of the referendum. The Department for Exiting the European Union is assessing the skills needed for the department, the right security protocols, and relative merits of potential employees in line with usual practice.
