It remains the Government\u2019s priority to leave the EU with an agreement. If the UK leaves the EU with an agreement, the UK will enter the implementation period during which eggs and eggs products from the EU will be still subject to tariff-free access.<\/p>
<\/p>
If the UK leaves the EU without an agreement, the UK would implement a temporary tariff regime, which was announced on March 13th<\/sup> 2019. The temporary tariff is a balanced tariff policy which aims to minimise costs to business and mitigate price impacts on consumers, while also supporting UK producers as far as possible.<\/p> No licences were granted for weapons on 18th<\/sup> May 2018 for export to Israel.<\/p> <\/p> However, two equipment licences were granted \u2013 one was a Temporary export licence for military training equipment, which was issued for use in the provision of an aerial target for an air defence training exercise. Temporary exports are returned to the UK within the 12 month validity of the licence granted. The second licence was for information security equipment, which was issued for a street light control gateway.<\/p>"}
