The grant of pre-settled status to EU citizens and their family members under post- Brexit arrangements does NOT itself automatically confer the right to EQUAL TREATMENT with UK citizens under Article 23 of the WITHDRAWAL AGREEMENT in respect of social assistance. To enjoy equal treatment an EU citizen needs to be complying with the conditions on residence rights set out in various EU instruments applied by Part 2 of the Withdrawal Agreement.
