Consumers: Protection

Question

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Callanan on 27 September (HL10205), what meetings ministers from all departments have held with consumer representatives in relation to the UK’s departure from the EU.

Answer

Ministers and officials from across Government have a regular dialogue with stakeholders from sectors across the economy, including consumer bodies, to discuss their priorities as we leave the European Union.

Details of Ministerial and senior official meetings on Government business are published in the Department’s Quarterly Transparency Returns, which are made publicly available on GOV.UK.

On 13 November I wrote to the Noble Lady regarding consumer bodies. Appended to this letter was a list of HMG Ministerial engagements with consumer bodies that have been published in transparency returns since January 2018. A copy of this letter has been placed in the Library of the House.
