The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord McAvoy on 2016-01-28.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they will publish the minutes and papers of the last seven meetings of the Joint Exchequer Committee.

Lord O’Neill of Gatley

The UK and Scottish governments publish a joint communique after each meeting of the Joint Exchequer Committee, it outlines what was discussed at the meeting. The negotiations are ongoing and require a private space in which discussions can make progress.

The UK government has no plans to publish any further minutes or papers from the Joint Exchequer Committee.
