<p>The Government has consulted with Members from all sides of the House on a range
of issues relating to the UK’s withdrawal from, and future relationship with the EU.</p><p>If
the UK leaves the EU without a deal, the UK would implement a temporary tariff regime
that takes a balanced approach to support the UK economy as a whole. It will maintain
open trade on the majority of UK imports, to support consumers and business supply
chains, but retain necessary tariff protection for particular sectors of the UK economy.
This would apply for up to 12 months while a full consultation, and review on a permanent
approach, is undertaken.</p><p>As a responsible government we’ve been preparing to
minimise any disruption in the event of no deal for over three years. We remain focused
on ensuring our smooth and orderly withdrawal from the EU.</p>
