PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Home Office: Brexit (8 January 2019)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much his Department is spending on a public information campaign to prepare people for the potential effects of the UK leaving the EU without a deal.

Asked by:
Ed Davey (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

Home Office has a duty to inform citizens and businesses about how leaving the EU might affect them, and to advise on the steps they may need to take to prepare for EU Exit.

Home Office is part of the cross-departmental public information campaign to help achieve this, including campaign activity focused on passport renewal and EU citizens’ rights. Over the coming weeks, we will be using a range of channels to direct UK citizens, businesses, EU citizens living in the UK and UK nationals living in the EU to a dedicated area on GOV.UK at Gov.uk/euexit.

Information on the costs associated with this campaign will be released in due course as part of normal data transparency releases.
