Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what steps they are taking to protect the rights of British citizens living in the EU set out in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.
This question was answered on 21st September 2016
There has been no change to the rights and status of British citizens in the EU, or EU citizens in the UK, as a result of the referendum.
The Prime Minister has been clear that during negotiations she wants to protect the status of EU nationals already living here, and the only circumstances in which that would not be possible is if British citizens’ rights in European member states were not protected in return.
