answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/01/2021 answer text <p>Through the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, the UK and EU have agreed provisions on trade in services in line with our respective FTAs with Japan, but with some additional benefits for both sides. We have secured commitments in line with our objectives as set out in the UK Approach Document, meaning the agreement will promote cross border trade in services by providing service suppliers and investors with transparency and certainty about future trade with the EU at the multilateral level. More broadly, the UK is working at multilateral forums to encourage greater services trade liberalisation.</p><p> </p><p>The agreement additionally includes provisions that will enable many UK businesses to continue to operate across borders without the need to establish in the EU and will afford them the clarity and transparency they need to navigate diverse Member State regimes at a bilateral level.</p> answering member printed Lord Callanan question first answered 25/01/2021 16:43:23 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/01/2021 answer text <p>This is the first free trade agreement the EU has ever reached based on zero tariffs and zero quota. Businesses will be able to continue to trade smoothly, selling to their customers in the EU, and people will be able to continue to buy goods from Europe tariff-free, protecting consumer prices.</p><p>The agreement provides for streamlined customs arrangements, including recognising our respective trusted trade schemes, to support the smooth flow of goods at the border and to reduce administrative costs for traders. This deal also enables us to introduce our own modern subsidy system so that we can better support businesses to grow and thrive, in a way that best suits the interests of UK industries.</p><p /><p /> <p> </p> answering member constituency Portsmouth North answering member printed Penny Mordaunt grouped question UIN 132802 132803 132805 question first answered 18/01/2021 17:48:14 answering member 4017 label Biography information for Penny Mordaunt
