Question to the Department for International Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what plans the Government has to bring forward a schedule of commitments on trade in IT equipment to be agreed with new trading partners after the UK leaves the EU; and if he will make a statement.
In pursuing technical rectification of UK tariff schedules at the World Trade Organization (WTO), we aim to replicate as far as possible our current obligations; this includes commitments under the Information Technology Agreement (ITA) of 1996, and the ITA expansion declaration of 2015.
