There have been representations received on the budget changes to the Tradeshow Access Programme (TAP) from trade associations and businesses largely in the textiles and footwear industry; and from the Sponsors Alliance, a grouping of organisations who receive payment to help UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) deliver TAP support.
