The political declaration does come under a policy paper section of the governments website -
https://www.gov.uk/government/public...al-declaration
On the page is also this;

The new Political Declaration sets out the framework for the future relationship between the European Union and the United Kingdom and reflects the Government’s ambition to conclude an ambitious, broad, deep and flexible partnership across trade and economic cooperation with the EU, with a free trade agreement with the EU at its core, alongside agreements on security and other areas of cooperation.

Hence my confusion...
I guess we need to wait for the formal policy to be published as I said before.
