The United Kingdom has left the European Union and entered a transition period from 1 February to 31 December 2020. During this period the Government will forge new partnerships with the EU and the rest of world.

Both the EU and the UK are committed to agreeing a future partnership by the end of 2020 and are working to achieve this. The UK will continue to ensure fast access to devices for patients and maintain high standards of patient safety.
