Written Question
Wednesday 20th June 2018
Asked by:
Earl of Kinnoull (Crossbench - Excepted Hereditary)
Question
to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask Her Majesty's Government whether UK Notified Bodies will be able to continue to work with UK manufacturers, checking their products conform to the essential requirements of European directives which have also been transposed into UK law, until the end of the anticipated Brexit implementation period.
Answered by Lord Henley
The Government recognises the valuable work undertaken by UK Notified Bodies in ensuring that products placed on the market have been through suitable assessment to ensure they comply with the relevant requirements.
During the implementation period the UK will no longer be a Member State of the European Union, but market access will continue on current terms.
For UK Notified Bodies this means that they will continue to be able to conduct third-party conformity assessments for both the UK and the EU markets as they do now.
Written Question
Friday 2nd February 2018
Asked by:
Earl of Kinnoull (Crossbench - Excepted Hereditary)
Question
to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to convene a meeting with representatives from the industrial product supply sector to address concerns relating to uncertainty over the proposed transition period after the UK leaves the EU, in particular (1) how long that transition period will last, and (2) the parameters of rights and regulations that will apply during that period.
Answered by Lord Henley
In the last year Ministers and officials have met over 2000 stakeholder organisations, including over 600 businesses at a series of stakeholder events. After the last General Election, we set up a business advisory group with an EU Exit focus that’s attended by senior Government ministers, to give higher priority to companies’ concerns in the EU exit negotiations. We want to agree the terms of a time-limited implementation period as soon as possible - giving businesses across the UK certainty.
