Matthew Pennycook – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the HM Treasury

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Matthew Pennycook on 2016-10-24.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what estimate he has made of the earliest date by which the UK will be able to discharge the liabilities entered into during its time as an EU member state when exiting from the EU.

Mr David Gauke

There are a whole range of issues and elements to our relationship with the European Union that will need to be addressed as we leave.

These issues affect both sides, the UK and the EU. The government will not be giving a running commentary on the details.
