Asked by:
Mr Richard Holden (Conservative)

It is in both the UK and the EU’s interests to have a future relationship which maintains the flow of goods, the provision of services, and the continuity of business.

We are committed to levelling up access to opportunity across the country, investing in the infrastructure, skills, and technology we need to improve economic performance in all parts of the UK.

We will continue to work with companies over the next 9 months to ensure they are well prepared for the end of the Transition Period.
