Impact assessments for leaving the EU
Dear Department for Exiting the European Union,
With the upcoming general election, I want to make an informed vote and am reminded of what Mrs May said in March 2017 in response to the Scottish Government. Mrs May said "It would be unfair to the people of Scotland at the moment that they would be being asked to make a crucial decision without the information they need to make that decision."
I understand that HM Government has produced analyses of the impact of leaving the EU. This is important information that should be in the public domain so that the electorate can make an informed decision.
As Mrs May has declared that electors should make informed decisions, there will be no reason why this information cannot be published.
Given the short period of time that Mrs May has allowed before the general election, I would be grateful if you could provide copies of these impact analyses as a matter of urgency. I understand that you have 20 working days, so expect to have this information before the General Election on June 8 2017.
Yours faithfully,
Kristian Healey-Ryder
