Rebecca Evans, Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Energy and Planning
In accordance with the inter-institutional relations agreement, I can report to Members that I attended the Interministerial Group on UK-EU Relations on the 3 December.
The meeting was also attended by:
- Nick Thomas–Symonds, Paymaster General and Minister for the Cabinet Office (Minister for the Constitution and European Union Relations).
- Angus Robertson, Scottish Cabinet Secretary for Constitution, External Affairs and Culture.
- Michelle O'Neill First Minister of Northern Ireland and Emma Little-Pengelly Deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland.
The Interministerial Group on UK-EU Relations provides a ministerial forum to discuss matters relating to the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union and the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA). At this meeting we discussed the work on the UK-EU relationship reset.
This statement is being issued during recess to keep Members informed. Should Members wish me to make a further statement or to answer questions on this when the Senedd returns I would be happy to do so.
