Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, at what frequency his Department plans to hold meetings of the EU Files Forum; and whether the Government intends to publish (a) agendas (b) lists of participants and (c) minutes for each.

The Department for Business and Trade holds a quarterly official-level EU Files Forum, with the next meeting scheduled for December 2025.

This forum was established to facilitate a dialogue between government and the UK business community on evolving EU legislation. To protect any sensitive or commercially confidential information, we do not intend to publish agendas, participant lists, or minutes.

The Government remains committed to open and constructive dialogue with businesses and their representatives to ensure their perspectives are considered in shaping the UK's approach to EU-related trade matters.
