If the UK leaves the EU without a deal in place, the Government would implement its Temporary Tariff Regime, announced in March. Under this regime the majority of imports would be tariff free, reducing the risk of price increases for consumers. The Temporary Tariff Regime does not plan to impose import taxes on assistive and adaptive equipment. The full list of products that will face tariffs in a no deal exit can be found online.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth West answering member printed Conor Burns question first answered 09/09/2019 14:53:50 answering member 3922 label Biography information for Sir Conor Burns
