British Prime Minister Theresa May says a second vote in Parliament on her Brexit deal will be conducted by March 12.
This is the latest delay in her attempt to win approval for a plan to ensure Britain’s orderly departure from the European Union.
On her way to Egypt for an EU-Arab League summit, the Prime Minister promised to seek changes that would allow lawmakers to ratify the agreement.
Britain is due to leave on March 29.
The EU has ruled out re-opening the Withdrawal Agreement, but its leaders are looking at a possible legal addendum to reassure lawmakers.
May says further meetings are scheduled in Brussels on securing changes to the deal.
“We’ve been working on how we can deal with the issue that has been raised by parliament of ensuring that the Northern Ireland backstop cannot be indefinite. We still have to within our grasp to leave the EU with a deal on the 29th of march.”
