Remarks: These slides are for presentational and information purposes only and were presented to the Council Working Party (Article 50) on 16 January 2018. The contents are without prejudice to discussions on the framework of the future relationship.

In December 2017, the European Council invited the Council (Art.50) together with the Union negotiator to continue internal preparatory discussions on the scope of the future EU-UK relationship. The slides support those discussions. They are based on the April European Council guidelines which continue to apply in their entirety.
