	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/11/2021 answer text <p>High consumer demand and sustained disruption caused by Covid-19 has put pressure on global freight capacity which has resulted in demand for shipping containers outstripping supply. This has caused an increase in the cost of freight transport globally. Higher prices have impacted UK trade causing disruption for businesses and individuals. DIT has supported DfT in working with the shipping industry to mitigate disruption. DIT is also engaging with affected businesses and continues to monitor the impact of rising shipping prices on international trade.</p> answering member constituency Finchley and Golders Green answering member printed Mike Freer question first answered 26/11/2021 14:40:16 answering member 4004 label Biography information for Mike Freer
