To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what steps he is taking to improve relations with the European Union.

Answered by Nick Thomas-Symonds

The Government is resetting the relationship with our European friends to strengthen ties and tackle shared challenges. The Prime Minister and President of the European Commission have agreed to strengthen the relationship between the EU and UK, putting it on a more solid, positive and forward-looking relationship . I am taking forward discussions with my EU counterpart, Vice President Maroš Šefčovič.
