Question to the Department for International Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, which of the Continuity Trade Agreements signed by her Department since 1 October 2020 were shown in draft form to (a) the members of the Trade and Agriculture Commission, (b) relevant members of her Trade Advisory Groups, and (c) the members of her Trade Union Advisory Group, for the purposes of expert analysis and consultation prior to the completion of negotiations.
Continuity Trade Agreements seek to replicate the effects of the EU’s trade agreements, and were scrutinised on that basis previously. Accordingly, no draft continuity trade agreements have been been shared with these groups.
