Abstract

The size of the 'divorce bill' the UK will pay following its exit from the EU remains one of the key sticking points in the Brexit negotiations. Iain Begg writes that despite the apparent deadlock over the issue, it would not take much to reach a compromise. He suggests that extending the idea of an implementation phase to the UK's budget contributions would offer a way forward, with the UK simply maintaining its net contribution at current levels for the duration of a transition period.
