Imports: UK Trade with EU
(asked on )
Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will make an assessment of the effect on small and medium-sized businesses of changes in the costs of importing goods into the UK in the event that the UK leaves the EU customs union on 29 March 2019.
This question was answered on 19th January 2018
The Government has been clear that, as we leave the EU, we will also leave the EU customs union. Future customs arrangements are dependent on the outcome of the negotiations with the EU. The Government is engaging with businesses, including small and medium-sized enterprises, in every sector and region of the UK economy to assess the effect of EU Exit on them.
