On transitional arrangements for the establishment of British citizens in EU Member States 

The petitioner expresses his concerns about the loss of EU citizenship of British citizens, and their right of free movement within the EU. He claims that the EU has a duty of care towards all EUcitizens. The petitioner calls for a transitional arrangement allowing British citizens to opt for residence in an EU Member State during a transitional period of 5 years, with support by Member States to these citizens, in order to allow them in particular to apply for citizenship in that Member State. The petitioner also invites the European Parliament to support the European Citizens’ Initiative on Permanent European Union Citizenship.
