<p>Minsters in the Office for the Secretary of State for Wales have regular discussions
with Cabinet colleagues and Cabinet Secretaries in the Welsh Government on a number
of issues related to the impact on Wales of the UK leaving the EU.</p><p> </p><p>The
Government is committed to ensuring that withdrawal from the EU is a successful and
smooth process for all parts of the UK, and we are conscious that a significant proportion
of the traffic at some ports is not currently subject to customs controls. We want
to ensure that traffic continues to flow freely at all UK ports and airports, including
Holyhead, Fishguard and Pembroke Dock, and we will seek to ensure that customs arrangements
and mechanisms are as frictionless as possible, and that trade fluidity is maintained.
Officials in the Wales Office and colleagues across Government are working with port
operators and other stakeholders in Wales to support the smooth and orderly implementation
of these new arrangements.</p><p><strong> </strong></p>
