PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Trade Agreements: EU Countries (10 September 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will make it his policy to include (a) a youth mobility scheme and (b) measures to support the English Language Teaching sector in the UK in future trade deals with EU countries.

Asked by:
Tom Hayes (Labour)

Answer

I apologise to the Honourable Member for the delay in responding to his question of 10 September.

The Government set out clear priorities for the reset with the EU in the manifesto. There are no plans for a Youth Mobility Scheme.

The UK generally seeks provisions in trade agreements to expand opportunities and enhance certainty for UK businesses seeking to export services. The UK’s English Language Training sector is considered and consulted where necessary to ensure that their interests are supported.
