UK Ratifies Brexit Deal
The UK Parliament has today approved the EU-UK post-Brexit trade and cooperation agreement.
The fact that a "no deal" exit has been averted is welcome news, but the risk of disruption does still remain. Should you experience supply issues over the coming weeks, the following steps are advised:
1. Raise actual or anticipated supply disruption through business as usual routes as early as possible. Where appropriate, escalate supply issues to the National Supply Disruption Response (NSDR).
2. Ready and maintain the preparations you have made ahead of the end of the transition period as detailed in this action checklist.
We will be reviewing and assessing the implications of the agreement for our sector in the coming days, and will issue a further communication next week.
