Brexit

Question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what steps the Government plans to take to ensure that there is cross-party input into discussions with the devolved parliamentary bodies and administration in the process of negotiating the UK exit from the EU.

Answer

We must ensure that the interests of all parts of our United Kingdom are protected and advanced.
