answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/02/2019 answer text <p>Our first priority for the UK’s trade with developing countries is to deliver continuity in our trading arrangements on leaving the EU. The Taxation (Cross-Border Trade) Act enables the UK to put in place a trade preferences scheme for developing countries that maintains the same level of access as the EU's Generalised Scheme of Preferences. Our intention is to provide the Philippines with the same level of access as it receives under the GSP+ tier of the EU’s GSP. As part of this we will expect beneficiary countries to continue to respect the conditions in GSP+.</p> answering member constituency Meon Valley answering member printed George Hollingbery question first answered 25/02/2019 10:22:12 answering member 4016 label Biography information for Sir George Hollingbery
