Report of the Director of Economic Development.

The Sub Committee considered a report of the Director of Economic Development on the policy stance of the future EU/UK trading relationship in financial services.

Members were broadly in favour of the report and happy to accept the policy stance. There was some discussion on whether the stance should also include the exclusion of the European Court of Justice (ECJ).

The Policy Chairman reminded Members that the messaging is aligned with the financial and professional services sector.

RESOLVED, that:

·         The content of the report be noted

·         The policy stance and engagement strategy be approved.
