Galileo System
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether the Government plans to seek access to the EU's Galileo system in order to avoid disruption to existing satellite navigation capabilities.
- Answer
-
The UK and the EU discussed the Galileo programme during the Withdrawal Agreement negotiations. The EU’s offer on Galileo did not meet the UK’s security and industrial requirements.
Our position remains unchanged and as such, the UK is not seeking to continue participation in Galileo.
