Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to publish a Brexit impact study on the Welsh economy; and if so, when.

As part of our work preparing to make a success of our departure from the European Union, we are carrying out a broad range of analysis, as you would expect a responsible Government to do.

This analysis covers a variety of sectors from across the UK economy, including Wales. However, as Parliamentary Under Secretary Robin Walker said in his opening remarks to the House on 1st November, the Government has not produced a series of sectoral impact assessments. The sectoral analysis which has been conducted is a wide mix of qualitative and quantitative analysis contained in a range of documents developed at different times since the referendum.

The Government is engaging extensively with the Welsh Government, along with Welsh organisations and institutions and in order to secure a deal that works in the interests of not just Wales, but the whole of the United Kingdom.
