Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether he has conducted an impact assessment on the potential impact of US ethanol imports on the production of bioethanol within the UK.

We have concluded a landmark economic deal with the United States, making the UK the first country to reach an agreement with President Trump.

This is a unique deal that ensures UK industries are protected; talks with the US are ongoing.

Both the Secretary of State and senior officials from the Department for Business and Trade have been meeting representatives of the domestic bioethanol industry to discuss their concerns.
