Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, with reference to sub-paragraph 30(b)(iv) of Chapter Four of the White Paper, The future relationship between the UK and the EU, Cm. 9593, published on 12 July 2018, what those rebalancing measures are.

Answer

Rebalancing measures would be designed to mitigate any imbalance created when one party has a different set of rules that create a competitive advantage.

As set out in sub- para 30(a)(ii) and 30(b)(iv) one such example would be financial compensation. Ultimately measures are a matter for negotiation.
