Government is continuing to work hard to provide the clarity that we know businesses need in the run up to March 29th.

BEIS and other government departments have been working with business representative bodies including the BCC to provide access to answers.

The Public Information Campaign business section is regularly updated with the latest information as it becomes available and we will continue to work cross-government to identify gaps in information businesses need and provide it in user friendly accessible formats.

Additionally, BEIS has established a Business Readiness Forum which meets weekly and is attended by the BCC which will help both the BCC and other representative bodies to communicate policy decisions to their members in a timely manner in the run up to EU Exit.
