Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions she has had with the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union on (a) changes to the rights of EU citizens resident in the UK before the UK's departure from the EU and (b) the effect of such changes on (i) negotiations with the EU and (ii) the UK's future relationship with the EU.

At present, the UK remains in the EU.

The Prime Minister has been clear that she wants to secure the status of those EU nationals already living in the UK as early possible once formal negotiations begin.

As part of this process, the Home Secretary will continue to work closely with colleagues across Whitehall and the Government will engage with relevant stakeholders.
