Asked by: Mark Pawsey (Conservative - Rugby)

Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what steps she is taking to improve access for UK exporters to high growth global markets.

Answered by Graham Stuart

As an independent trading nation, we are building strong trading relationships across the world and removing market access barriers for British businesses. We have secured trade agreements with 66 non-EU countries, worth £217bn in 2019. We have formally applied to join the Comprehensive and Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership, an agreement which removes tariffs on 95% of goods between members and will deepen UK access to key markets around the world, from Mexico to Malaysia.
