Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, pursuant to the Answer of 25 March 2019 to Question 236355, on EU Budget: Contributions, what the Government's legal obligations are in relation to the financial settlement with the EU in the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal.

In the event that we leave the EU without a deal, the financial settlement as set out in the Withdrawal Agreement would no longer apply.

The Government recognises that the UK has obligations to the EU, and the EU obligations to the UK, that will survive the UK’s withdrawal—and that these need to be resolved. But in a no deal scenario we would need to determine how to do so.
