Brexit - Recent Developments and Future Negotiations: Discussion

4:00 pm

Mr. John Callinan:

In my own Department I am satisfied with the availability of resources I have . As we have scaled up that has not been an issue and no one has put a barrier in the way for me. More generally, across the entire civil service and the wider agencies, there has been recognition that there are certain areas that need to be resourced more strongly on Brexit, whether that is through a reallocation of resources within those Departments, or in some cases through additional resources. Across Government, and at a political level by Government, there is a recognition that this is one of the biggest challenges we have to face, and it will not lack the human resources needed to deliver it.
