Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will take steps with Cabinet colleagues to review the implementation of the Single Trade Window to ensure it meets the needs of small businesses; and if he will make a statement.

The world-leading Single Trade Window (STW) will provide a simplified experience for businesses interacting with the Government and significantly reduce the administrative burden, including for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Through the STW, SMEs and other businesses will only need to submit their data once and in one place. Better use of technology and real-time data will ensure a more streamlined experience and represents an important step in our endeavour to create the most effective border in the world.
