UK Trade with EU: Economic Situation
Wednesday 25th February 2026

Asked by: Robin Swann (Ulster Unionist Party - South Antrim)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what value of goods have been identified as a threat to the European Union's economy and held at a check point between Great Britain and Northern Ireland since the introduction of the Windsor Framework by year.

Answered by Dan Tomlinson - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury)

HMRC does not hold data on the value of goods identified as a threat to the EU economy.

The UK Internal Market Scheme enables businesses to move goods from Great Britain to Northern Ireland without being subject to customs duties and unnecessary checks and paperwork. Over 15,000 businesses have been authorised for UKIMS.

The Independent Monitoring Panel's recent assessment of the UK Internal Market System showed that 96% of the value of goods moving via freight from Great Britain to Northern Ireland did so under the UK internal market system for the period 1 January 2025 – 30 June 2025.
