We want to agree the greatest possible tariff- and barrier-free trade with our European neighbours.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>But there will be areas that affect our economic relations where we and our European friends may have different goals; or where we share the same goals but want to achieve them through different means. We recognise that the single market is built on a balance of rights and obligations, and so our task is to find a new framework that allows for a close economic partnership but holds those rights and obligations in a new and different balance.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Callanan question first answered 26/01/2018 13:04:03 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan
