The policy proposals contained in the paper outline our fair and serious offer to citizens. Following negotiations, agreements will be enshrined in UK law and enforceable through the UK judicial system, up to and including the Supreme Court. We are also ready to make commitments in the Withdrawal Agreement which will have the status of international law.
