Asked by: Lord Polak (Conservative - Life peer)
Question to the Department for International Trade:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what discussions they have had with the government of Israel to strengthen UK–Israel trade; and what progress has been made in securing a UK–Israel trade deal to be implemented following the UK's exit from the EU.
Answered by Lord Price
The Prime Minister met the Israeli Prime Minister in February and agreed to establish a working group to continue the progress we have seen to date. We continue to liaise closely with the Israeli Government on strengthening our trading links, and I look forward to building on our strong trade relationship during my visit to Israel this week.
