Gibraltar: UK Relations with EU
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what revised timetable the Government has set for (a) signature, (b) laying before Parliament, and (c) ratification of the UK-EU Agreement in respect of Gibraltar, in light of the stated implementation date of 15 July 2026.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
We welcome the EU's announcement confirming agreement on the Gibraltar Treaty by the Committee of Permanent Representatives, which is an important milestone for the people and businesses of Gibraltar on the journey to full ratification.
As soon as possible after the EU has concluded its other internal processes, the final version of the Treaty will be laid in Parliament for scrutiny in accordance with the Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010.
As I have stated in my previous answers to the Hon Member, I look forward to going over the detail of the treaty with her when the final text is brought before the House.
