443. To ask the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation the articles of the EU treaties the Commission is relying on when asking member states to sign a letter of intent prior to the qualified majority vote in relation to the provisional application of the comprehensive economic and trade agreement; if such a letter of intent has been signed and or if it is her intention to sign such a letter; in the event that such a letter of intent is signed, the legal recourse member states have to have it withdrawn; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

I am not aware of a letter of intent with respect to the provisional application of the Comprehensive Economic Trade Agreement. The question of signing such a letter does not therefore arise.
