The European Union (EU) has expressed its openness to discussions regarding different aspects of a single market arrangement. This position aligns with the Prime Minister's preferred direction of policy, which involves alignment across various sectors.

The EU also underscored that membership in the single market would constitute the most mutually beneficial arrangement, but this would necessitate adherence to the 'four freedoms,' including the freedom of movement.
