<p>The Government is committed to leaving the EU on 31<sup>st</sup> October and is
seeking a new deal with the EU. At this late stage, we believe that it is still possible
for the UK to leave the EU with a deal and will work to make this happen.</p><p> </p><p>We
have been making preparations in the event we choose to leave the EU without a deal.
To date, the UK has signed or agreed in principle agreements with countries that account
for 64% of the UK’s trade with all the countries with which the UK is seeking continuity
in the event of a potential No Deal. That has moved from 28% since March. We continue
to work intensively on remaining agreements to minimise disruption as far as possible.</p><p>
</p><p>A regularly updated list of agreements signed is available on GOV.UK and alongside
a list of remaining agreements: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/existing-trade-agreements-if-the-uk-leaves-the-eu-without-a-deal/existing-trade-agreements-if-the-uk-leaves-the-eu-without-a-deal"
