Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, how her Department plans to assess the effect of future trade agreements on developing economies.
The Department for International Development and Department for International Trade are working closely together to put global prosperity at the heart of the UK’s future trade policy and to shape our future trading arrangements with developing countries. Our first priority is to deliver continuity in these trading arrangements as we leave the EU. We will conduct a public consultation ahead of every new trade agreement negotiation that will last for 14 weeks.
