Question to the Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, pursuant to the Answer of 8 September 2026 to Question 24108 on DBSIT: Databases, if he will list each data item that must be reported to the EU under those stated categories.

The Trade & Cooperation Agreement (TCA) contains a mixture of direct notification obligations, public transparency requirements, and bilateral information exchanges upon request, several of which relate to the remit of the Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade. For example, the provisions of Article 29 require the Parties to notify each other of modification to existing or the creation of new export licensing procedures. On customs and rules of origin, Article 62 requires the Parties to notify each other of changes to the details of their customs authorities and Article 93 requires Parties to provide early notification of a proposal to introduce mandatory third-party testing or certification in certain product areas.

The text of the TCA provides details of the direct notification obligations, public transparency requirements, and bilateral information exchanges provisions which apply to both Parties: UK/EU and EAEC: Trade and Cooperation Agreement [TS No.8/2021] - GOV.UK. The Department’s reporting requirements cover a range of policy areas and a list of individual data items is not held centrally.
