answer text <p>The Windsor Framework significantly expands the number of businesses able to be classed as internal UK traders and move goods as 'not at risk' of entering the EU through three important changes:</p><p>· First, businesses throughout the United Kingdom will now be eligible on a permanent basis.</p><p>· Secondly, we have quadrupled the turnover threshold below which companies involved in processing can move goods under the scheme which they can show stay in Northern Ireland.</p><p>· Thirdly, we have increased the number of firms eligible to move goods for processing in the animal feed, healthcare, construction and not-for-profit sectors. Inputs into food production will continue to benefit from inclusion in the 'not at risk' definition.</p><p>The Windsor Framework also expands both the traders that can access the scheme, and the goods they can move, while codifying in legal text a unique arrangement in which UK public health and safety standards will apply for all retail food and drink in the UK internal market.</p><p>For those in the scheme who can show that their goods will stay in Northern Ireland, we will provide a radically simplified process for goods movements, underpinned by the existing Trader Support Service, as we have set out.</p>
