Written Question
Brexit: Wales
Wednesday 14th March 2018

Asked by: Tony Lloyd (Labour - Rochdale)

Question to the Wales Office:

What recent discussions he has had with Cabinet colleagues on the effect on Wales of the UK leaving the EU Customs Union and single market.

Answered by Alun Cairns

I have regular discussions with Cabinet colleagues about the opportunities leaving the Customs Union and the EU single market offers to Wales.

Welsh business have already begun to seize these opportunities, as shown by the fact that their exports to non-EU countries grew faster than exports to the EU last year.
