The EU may change these rates between now and March 2019, but this provides an indication.</p><p>The UK will apply its MFN rates to goods imported into the UK from the EU. The government will determine and publish these new UK duty rates before we leave the EU.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/01/2019 answer text <p>The EU and the UK are committed to an arrangement with no tariffs between the UK and the EU. However, in the event of the UK leaving the EU without a deal, goods traded between the UK and the EU will be subject to the same requirements as third country goods, including the payment of duty. For UK exports to the EU, the EU will require payment of customs duty at the rate under the EU’s Common Customs Tariff (CCT). Full details are available on the EU’s website (<a href="http://madb.europa.eu/madb/euTariffs.htm" target="_blank">http://madb.europa.eu/madb/euTariffs.htm</a>).</p><p>The current third country duty on most types of motor vehicles is 10%, therefore the tariffs would likely be £1,500 for (a) and £2,500 for (b). However, more information is needed on the vehicles in question to provide an exact answer. Furthermore, the EU may change these rates between now and March 2019.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 16/01/2019 15:11:17 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/11/2018 answer text <p>The UK has been clear that it is committed to establishing a far-reaching science and innovation accord with the EU. Two rounds of initial discussions have taken place with the Article 50 Task Force on science and innovation, the first on 22 May and the second on 7 June. Both sets of discussions were constructive, demonstrating a strong case for continued collaboration in this area.</p><p>This science and innovation accord will be underpinned by the UK’s wider agreements with the EU, including those on data sharing and protection. As we set out in our July 2018 White Paper, we are looking for an agreement with the EU that provides for the continued exchange of personal data between the UK and the EU with strong privacy protections for citizens.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 05/11/2018 14:22:12 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/11/2018 answer text <p>The original proposals put forward by the EU are ones we cannot accept. It would mean creating a customs border down the Irish sea and breaking the integrity of the UK. The proposals we have put forward for our future economic relationship would allow both sides to meet our commitments to the people of Northern Ireland in full. We are working hard to get a deal on that basis. While we remain committed to resolving the Northern Ireland border through our overall economic relationship, the backstop is a critical issue, and we stand by all our commitments including the safeguarding of the constitutional and economic integrity of the United Kingdom.</p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 05/11/2018 14:26:02 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris
