Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, if she will list the countries with which the Government is conducting bilateral trade negotiations.

HM Government has agreed trade deals with 66 countries, in addition to the EU, covering trade worth £890 billion in 2019.

My Department has agreed continuity arrangements with the European Economic Area (EEA) and continue to make progress towards a new comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (FTA). We are continuing discussions from last year with Serbia too, with a view to concluding an agreement soon.

FTA negotiations are continuing with the US, Australia and New Zealand. We will re-open negotiations with Canada and Mexico this year, which supports our strategy to accede to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).
