1. Certainty
We will provide certainty wherever we can……I recognize how
important it is to provide business, the public
sector, and everybody with as much certainty as possible as we move through the process. I can confirm today that the Government will put the final deal that is agreed between the UK and the E.U. to a vote in both Houses of Parliament, before it comes into force.
2. Control of our own laws
Leaving the European Union will mean that our laws will be made in Westminster, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast. And those laws will be interpreted by judges not in Luxembourg but in courts across this country. Because we will not have truly left the European Union if we are not in control of our own laws.
3. Strengthen the Union
A stronger Britain demands that we do something else -- strengthen the precious union between the 4 nations of the United Kingdom. We won't agree on everything, but I look forward to working with the administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to deliver a Brexit that works for the whole of the United Kingdom.
4. Maintain the Common Travel Area with Ireland
We cannot forget that, as we leave, the United Kingdom will share a land border with the E.U., and maintaining that Common Travel Area with the Republic of Ireland will be an important priority for the UK in the talks ahead.
5. Control of immigration
We will continue to attract the brightest and the best to work or study in Britain -- indeed openness to international talent must remain one of this country's most
distinctive assets -- but that process must be managed properly so that our immigration system serves the national interest. So we will get control of the number of people coming to Britain from the E.U.
6. Rights for E.U. nationals in Britain, and British nationals in the E.U.
We want to guarantee the rights of E.U. citizens who are already living in Britain, and the rights of British nationals in other member states, as early as we can. I want everyone to know that it
remains an
important priority for Britain -- and for many other member states -- to resolve this challenge as soon as possible.
7. Protect workers' rights
Indeed, under my leadership, not only will the government protect the rights of workers set out in European legislation, we will build on them. Because under this government, we will make sure legal protection for workers keeps pace with the changing
labor market -- and that the voices of workers are heard by the boards of publicly-listed companies for the first time.
8. Free trade with European markets
We will pursue a bold and ambitious Free Trade Agreement with the European Union. We do not seek membership of the Single Market. And because we will no longer be members of the Single Market, we will not be required to contribute huge sums to the E.U. budget.
9. New trade agreements with other countries
A Global Britain must be free to strike trade agreements with countries from outside the European Union too. We want to get out into the wider world, to trade and do business all around the globe.
10. The best place for science and innovation
A Global Britain must also be a country that looks to the future. That means being one of the best places in the world for science and innovation. One of our great strengths as a nation is the breadth and depth of our academic and scientific communities, backed up by some of the world’s best universities.
11. Cooperation in the fight against crime and terrorism
A Global Britain will continue to cooperate with its European partners in important areas such as crime, terrorism and foreign affairs.
12. A smooth, orderly Brexit
We believe a phased process of
implementation, in which both Britain and the E.U. institutions and member states prepare for the new arrangements that will exist between us will be in our
mutual self-interest.
