To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, what recent discussions he has had with Cabinet colleagues on reducing administrative burdens for UK businesses exporting to the European Union.

Asked by:
Gordon McKee (Labour)

The Government is committed to supporting UK businesses trading with the European Union and to reducing unnecessary barriers to trade with our closest partner and biggest market to help delivery growth to every post code.

Ministers and officials in my department regularly engage with Cabinet colleagues on matters affecting exporters and economic growth.

We also provide a range of business support services, information, training, events and expert support to both new and experienced exporters, including through ‘Unlock Europe’, a free webinar series which features regular sessions for businesses on how to navigate EU regulations.
