The Joint Ministerial Committee on EU Negotiations, attended by the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and ministers from the Devolved Administrations alongside other ministers, met in Cardiff on 28 January and discussed negotiations with the EU.

The UK Government also engaged both with the Welsh Government and the other Devolved Administrations on the UK’s approach to the negotiations ahead of its publication on 27th February and following the first round of negotiations with the EU.

The UK Government is committed to working closely with the devolved administrations throughout negotiations with the EU to ensure a future relationship that works in the interests of the whole of the UK.
