[Young Liberals 🔶 @YoungLiberalsUK]

Young Liberals are proud to support @OxfordStudents petition to repeal the inhumane Vagrancy Act. One of the Lib Dem’s key policies is to get rid of this archaic law that criminalises the homeless. Sign here https://t.co/y4DaTd1oii and let’s get this debated in Parliament.

ADDENDUM: thanks to the @CommonsEUexit Committee, you can now read the reports online, minus the section on Sector Views.

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

Bottom line: even from my hour perusing the government's collation of Brexit views across 24 sectors, it was blindingly obvious what a far-reaching, ridiculous folly this whole Brexit debacle is. (11/ENDS)

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

Or that the Government has withheld the key impact analysis from what it has released to Parliament, which goes against the House of Commons motion of 1 Nov. I almost hope it is the latter, as that would mean the government has actually done some impact analysis. (10)

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

This raises the prospect either that the production of these papers and conspicuous secrecy around their content is nothing more than a costly vanity exercise to cover up Davis' errors in telling the Select Committee the analysis existed in 'excruciating detail'... (9)

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

But that rather conflicts with what David Davis has been saying for months.

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

Of course the government now claim they never did any sectoral impact assessments, only sectoral analysis. (7)

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

This is how the contents are described. For example, the Agriculture one had 35 pages of background facts, and 5 pages of sector views. Most worryingly: no analysis at all of what the impact of Brexit could be. (6)

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

Frustratingly only MPs & Peers can see these papers, and armed with pen and paper only. I transcribed the parts I have recreated here. Yet given the caveat below printed on every document, there is no reason for them not to be freely available online. (5)

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

The government has also been lobbied by many sectors for EU regulations to be kept or mirrored exactly, or face significant negative consequences. (4)

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

The papers detail calls from many sectors to remain part of existing EU institutions, programmes or agreements, such as EASA, Euratom, IEM, Horizon 2020, Erasmus and SES. (3)

[Jo Swinson @joswinson]

Of these 24 sectors, the papers show that in 21 of them, industry has concerns about skills gaps, attracting talent and labour mobility post-Brexit. (2)
