In the case of manufactured goods, this encompasses all rules that could be checked at the border, as they set the requirements for placing manufactured goods on the market. For agricultural products, food and drink, this includes relevant Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) rules to safeguard human, animal and plant health.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 23/07/2018 16:43:04 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2018 answer text <p>Each Free Trade Agreement negotiation entails a different balance of commitments, with less generous commitments in one area requiring more generous provisions elsewhere.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Under the proposal set out in our White Paper, the UK could make commitments to third country trading partners in a number of areas, while ensuring continued frictionless UK-EU trade: for example, on rules that set marketing and labelling requirements for agri-food products.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The UK could also agree mutual recognition of conformity assessments with third-countries, allowing the UK to recognise that a third country’s testing bodies can properly assess products against UK regulatory standards and vice versa. This is at the ambitious end of existing free trade agreements. We will also be an independent WTO member and able to set our own goods tariffs. Beyond goods, we will be able to negotiate in areas of real importance to our economy, such as services and digital.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 24/07/2018 17:05:13 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

uin	164337
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2018 answer text <p>The Prime Minister has always been clear that in leaving the EU, we will bring about an end to the jurisdiction of the CJEU in the UK. The proposal set out in the White Paper delivers on that commitment. No longer will courts in the UK be able to refer cases to the CJEU, nor will the CJEU be able to arbitrate disputes between the UK and the EU. The CJEU will no longer have the power to make laws for the UK and the principles of direct effect and of the supremacy of EU law will no longer apply in the UK.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Instead, rights will be enforced in the UK by UK courts and in the EU by EU courts. Where the UK agrees to retain a common rulebook with the EU, it will be important for businesses and citizens here and in the EU that those areas are interpreted and applied consistently. The UK would commit by treaty that its courts would pay due regard to CJEU case law, insofar as this was relevant to the matter before them. This is a recognition of legal fact - no other court can bind the EU on the meaning of EU law. Of course, this is in practice what our Courts would do anyway, and are free to do with the judgements of foreign courts. Importantly, UK courts would not be able to make preliminary references to the CJEU as once the UK has left the EU, such references would no longer be appropriate or necessary.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker grouped question UIN 164344 question first answered 23/07/2018 16:48:17 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/07/2018 answer text <p>The Government is undertaking a wide range of ongoing analysis in support of our EU exit negotiations and preparations. This analysis helps define our future partnership with the EU, and informs our understanding of how EU exit will affect the UK’s domestic policies and frameworks. Ministers have a specific responsibility, which Parliament has endorsed, not to release information that would reveal our negotiating position and so the Government will not provide an ongoing commentary on internal analytical work.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The Government is committed to positive and productive engagement with local governments across the UK, and will continue to work closely with them to understand the implications of the UK’s withdrawal from the EU. Ministers from across Government have also carried out extensive engagement on EU exit with businesses and industry bodies from all sectors of the economy and all regions of the UK, including those headquartered in Yorkshire.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The FCA combined with a common rulebook on agricultural and industrial goods should ensure that businesses from all over the UK including Yorkshire can continue to export to the EU with no new barriers or frictions.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 19/07/2018 15:29:25 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
