PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Youth Mobility Scheme: EU Countries (21 October 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of holding discussions with the EU on introducing a UK-EU youth mobility scheme.

Asked by:
James MacCleary (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

The Prime Minister and the president of the European Commission met in Brussels on 2 October and agreed to strengthen the relationship between the EU and the UK, putting it on a more solid, stable footing. We are committed to finding constructive ways to work together and deliver for the British people.

We are not going to give a running commentary on negotiations. We will obviously look at EU proposals on a range of issues, but we will not return to freedom of movement.
