Ministers and officials from the Department for Exiting the EU and the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) have engaged with a range of civil society organisations, including consumer groups, to understand their views and to ensure that their expertise continues to contribute to ongoing negotiations.
