Description

Setting out a clear vision of what is being sought as the UK leaves the European Union has proved to be a challenge for many of those involved in the Brexit process. That the Scottish Government has a sharper view, centred on ambitions different from those held by the UK Government, has been obvious since the publication in December 2016 of Scotland’s Place in Europe.

The Scottish Government’s preferences were clearly set out in that document: continued membership of the Single Market and Customs Union and a differentiated position for Scotland to retain close links with the EU, whatever is decided for the UK as a whole.
