The Political Declaration is explicit that the UK and EU should take forward urgent work to establish alternative arrangements that guarantee there will be no hard border on the island of Ireland on a permanent basis. Given the urgency and importance of these considerations, that work will draw upon all appropriate expertise within Government.<\/p>
The role of the GCSA and departmental CSAs in preparations for leaving the EU is to provide science advice in all relevant areas. They are doing so across a range of areas on a regular basis.<\/p>

We want to ensure the trade in goods between the UK and EU remains frictionless at the border, and that businesses can continue to operate, as much as possible, through their established global value and supply chains.<\/p>
The UK is therefore proposing that there will be no routine requirements for rules of origin on trade in goods between the UK and the EU, and arrangements that facilitate cumulation with current and future Free Trade Agreement partners. These proposals cover all goods, including automotive goods and supplies.<\/p>

On 12 July 2018, the Government published its White Paper setting out a proposed UK-EU free trade area for goods, including automotive products, to ensure continued frictionless access at the border to each other\u2019s markets. This would be underpinned by an upfront commitment to a common rulebook on goods and a Facilitated Customs Arrangement to avoid customs checks and controls at our borders
The common rulebook would cover all rules that set the requirements for placing a product on the market, and it would mean automotive products could undergo one series of approvals in one country in order to place products on the UK and EU markets.
The UK and the EU would continue recognising the activities of one another\u2019s vehicle type approval authorities, including whole vehicle type approval certificates, assessments of conformity of production procedures and other associated activities.<\/p>
We look forward to continuing our negotiations with the EU on this issue.<\/p>
