Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what steps he plans to take to ensure that businesses in the UK continue to benefit from the activities of the EU observatory on trademark protection after the UK leaves the EU.

Negotiations on the UK’s exit from the EU will consider all elements of our relationship with Europe including the EU Observatory. The Government continues to focus on achieving the best deal for the UK once we leave the EU.
