Shouldn't this maybe have been discussed on the 24th June 2016, not 264 days after invoking article 50?
They know what they want, obviously, but this is about detail now, and negotiation tactics.

I have learned through experience of policy making that if you try to go into too much detail before a negotiation, you will have spent many wasted hours of work! We've learned a lot from our Phase 1 negotiations with the EU. Now we go for the jugular!
