<p>This government is making the most of our new found freedom to reform, repeal and
replace outdated retained EU law that does not serve the interests of the UK. We are
creating a regulatory environment which will promote growth, innovation and prosperity,
cutting at least £1 billion of red tape for businesses, while maintaining the high
standards the British people rightly expect.</p><p>Cabinet Office is leading and coordinating
the programme of work being undertaken by Secretaries of State across government,
to identify and deliver the regulatory and economic opportunities that Brexit has
provided. No staff within the Brexit Opportunities Unit in the Cabinet Office monitor
how the EU chooses to diverge from the UK.</p><p>The Government monitors significant
EU policy developments that are likely to affect UK interests, to ensure compliance
with the Trade and Cooperation Agreement and support business readiness as necessary.
My officials and I undertake regular engagement with the Devolved Administrations
on the opportunities arising from leaving the EU, using Common Frameworks and other
existing intergovernmental structures.</p><p><strong></strong><br><br></p><p> </p>
