At the February European Council the Government negotiated a new settlement, giving the United Kingdom a special status in a reformed European Union.
As part of these negotiations, we secured a firm commitment to drive an ambitious agenda of economic reform within the EU to help unleash the full potential of the Single Market and create growth and jobs.
The Government's view is that the UK will be stronger, safer and better off remaining in a reformed EU.
