Statement

My Rt Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities and Minister for Intergovernmental Relations (Michael Gove), has today made the following written statement:

Earlier today, the UK Government published the third quarterly report of our engagement with the devolved administrations on the GOV.UK page for intergovernmental relations. The report has also been deposited in the libraries of both Houses of Parliament.

The report details engagement between the UK Government, Scottish Government, Welsh Government and Northern Ireland Executive between 1 July and 30 September 2021. It covers a period of collaboration on a range of important areas, including preparations to ensure a safe and secure COP26, as well as partnerships between UK and devolved administrations on net zero, COVID-19 response and recovery, the resettlement of Afghan refugees and the rollout of COVID-19 booster vaccines across the UK.

The report is part of the UK Government’s ongoing commitment to transparency of intergovernmental relations to Parliament and the public.
