On 28 November 2018 the Government published a robust, objective assessment of potential impacts on sectors, nations and regions of the UK. This included both an assessment of tariff and non-tariff barrier costs broken down by sectors in different scenarios, including no deal, and how the economy and specific sectors may adjust to these.

We will continue publishing individual Impact Assessments to accompany legislation, where appropriate.
