<p>Both the UK and the EU share a strong interest in preserving the integrated supply
chains in the aerospace sector.</p><p> </p><p>The UK has sought to work constructively
with the EU to get the best deal for business. The Government and Parliament’s priority
is still to leave the European Union with a deal that works for citizens and businesses.
This would avoid a no-deal outcome and a cliff-edge, and ensure parts can be sourced
from the EU in a timely manner.</p><p> </p><p>As a responsible Government, we are
planning for all scenarios and communicating with businesses. BEIS Ministers and officials
meet regularly with industry through the Aerospace Growth Partnership. Through this
engagement we encourage companies to engage proactively with their supply chain to
prepare for potential no deal scenarios. We are aware that companies in the aerospace
sector are stockpiling essential parts to try to minimise disruption in a no deal
scenario.</p>
