The Government continues to undertake a comprehensive programme of analysis in support of our EU exit negotiations and preparations.

The Government has been clear that free movement will end as we leave the EU. We will seek to negotiate an appropriate labour mobility framework with the EU to ensure UK nationals can continue to travel to the EU for business purposes, and vice versa.<\/p>"}

The Government is undertaking a wide range of preparatory work looking at the implications of UK withdrawal from the EU. This includes looking at functions presently undertaken by EU agencies.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government\u2019s priority is to have effective regulatory systems. Should an EU regulatory function be repatriated then in most cases this will be undertaken by an existing, rather than a new, public body.<\/p>
<\/p>
Prior to any decisions on establishing a new public body, the Government will always examine how it might be funded in a way that meets the standards set out in \u2018Managing Public Money\u2019 for financial transparency, accountability and oversight as well as value for money for the taxpayer. Funding is considered on a case by case basis and fees and charges can only be levied where Parliament has agreed legislation permitting the funding of new bodies in this way.<\/p>
<\/p>
We will continue to engage with businesses as we develop our approach.<\/p>"}

The Taskforce has a key role in informing and shaping the Government\u2019s response to the company\u2019s liquidation, but it is not a review group and will not publish recommendations. The Taskforce has been focused on taking swift action to mitigate the impacts on the small business supply chain, to support employees and apprenticeships find new employment and for the Taskforce members to help disseminate useful information to their respective shareholders. This has already led to useful collaborations, particularly in relation to work to ensure a swift transaction of construction contracts from Carillion to new contractors to minimise disruptions.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Taskforce has delivered a range of supportive measures, which include provision made by the Banks of nearly £1bn of support to those affected; Government has made available through the British Business Bank support of up to £100 million to small businesses, through their delivery partners, using the Enterprise Finance Guarantee. HMRC are also helping businesses facing genuine difficulty paying their tax bills through the Business Payment Support Service (BPSS) by offering a range of practical advice and guidance.<\/p>"}
