27th Aug 2024
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps his Department is taking to remove barriers to trade with the EU.

The Department is working with the European Union and Members States to break down trade barriers. As part of this agenda, we need effective ongoing dialogue with both British businesses and the European Union. As part of this, later today, Minister Thomas and I are hosting a roundtable to gather views from businesses on how the UK-EU trading relationship can be improved. My officials are also engaging with businesses to understand the barriers they face and how this Government can support then to grow and export to the European Union.

Douglas Alexander
Minister of State (Department for Business and Trade)
