Joint Consultative Working Group

Question

To ask Her Majesty's Government how many meetings of the Joint Working Consultative Committee have taken place between the UK and the EU to discuss the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland.

Answer

The Working Group will continue to meet at dates decided by the co-chairs.
