answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/07/2019 answer text <p>This government has been clear that we do not want a ‘no deal’ scenario. However, it is the responsible thing to prepare for all eventualities. We have therefore ensured we are ready to cooperate with European partners in areas such as security, air transport and medicines, and that the whole UK family, including Gibraltar and the Sovereign Base Areas, will be prepared in the event of a 'no deal'. All the primary legislation necessary for no deal is in place, and work continues to ensure that we are ready for that scenario, while remaining focused on our priority, which is to leave with a deal.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 02/07/2019 16:28:17 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/07/2019 answer text <p>The UK currently ensures appropriate sanitary and phytosanitary checks are in place at the border through the use of the EU’s TRACES import notification system. In the event of a no deal, the UK will lose access to this system. To prepare for this scenario, the Government has developed the UK’s own import notification capability.</p><p>This capability was in place for exit on 12 April and will be in place for exit on 31 October. This will ensure resources are targeted appropriately, so that sanitary and phytosanitary checks can continue to protect the UK from risks to public health while delays at the border are minimised.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Braintree answering member printed James Cleverly question first answered 02/07/2019 15:29:02 answering member 4366 label Biography information for James Cleverly
