Question to the Attorney General:

To ask the Attorney General, how many officials from his Department have been seconded from their primary role to make preparations for the UK leaving the EU without a deal; and if he will make a statement.

The Attorney General’s Office, along with all of HM Government, is committed to ensuring that we make a success of EU Exit. No officials from the Attorney General’s Office, a small ministerial department, have been seconded from their primary role to make preparations for the UK leaving the EU without a deal; officials working on EU Exit are preparing for all scenarios.
