Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what representations have been made to the Government of Morocco on replicating its EU-wide trade deal with the UK after the UK leaves the EU.

The UK Government is committed to seeking continuity in its current trade and investment relationships, including those covered by EU Free Trade Agreements or other EU preferential arrangements. We are actively exploring what may be possible in terms of replicating the effects of the current association agreement with Morocco in order to provide certainty for businesses.
