Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to develop more resilient supply chains after the COVID-19 pandemic. [T]


This question was answered on 20th May 2020

Free trade and resilient supply chains through open markets will be crucial to the global economic recovery. That is why this Department is factoring-in critical supply chains into our COVID-19 strategy and response, working collaboratively with other government departments.

The Department will continue to work with business to build further resilience for the future. Alongside this, the United Kingdom will fight protectionism and unfair trade practices tirelessly, including through the G20 and in the WTO.
