This week we are providing certainty for British businesses and consumers, assuring them that goods will be available in the UK and EU on the day we leave the EU.
It is in the interests of both the UK and the EU to ensure a smooth and orderly withdrawal in regard to the availability of goods in the UK and EU markets.
We recognise that investors, businesses and citizens in the UK and across the EU want to be able to plan ahead with certainty, and this paper sets out our desire to provide legal certainty and avoid disruption for business and consumers.
The Government has published a paper outlining the UK's position on continuity in the availability of goods in UK and EU markets at the point of EU exit, read here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/continuity-in-the-availability-of-goods-for-the-eu-and-the-uk-position-paper
