Speaking in the House of Lords on 18 December 2025

Debate

UK-EU Common Understanding Negotiations

Contribution

My Lords, we have agreed with the European Union to work towards the establishment of a youth experience scheme with the EU, creating new opportunities for cultural exchange with the UK and the EU. It is in both our interests to conclude the negotiations quickly and to stand up the scheme so that young UK and EU nationals can take up the opportunities as soon as possible. I cannot give those assurances that it will align with the Erasmus+ scheme as we are still negotiating one of those schemes, but I look forward to discussions with the noble Earl as soon as we have the detail of both.
