The greatest progress in UK-GCC trade liberalisation is likely to come from adopting an “agile” approach to trade policy, in the short-term. This will include exploring non-tariff measures, such as regulatory barriers to market access, that could help facilitate free-flowing trade. We have started to discuss this approach with the GCC.</p> answering member constituency Meon Valley answering member printed George Hollingbery question first answered 27/06/2019 12:31:39 answering member 4016 label Biography information for Sir George Hollingbery
