The British Chambers of Commerce, have been working hard in Westminster following the recent exit vote in the EU Referendum. Following meetings with the Secretary of State for Business Innovation & Skills, Sajid Javid and the Minister of State for Trade and Investment, Lord Price, Mr Javid and Lord Price have written asking for business views on three trade policy issues:
- What your priorities are for any negotiations on our trading relationship with the EU and the rest of the World?
- What support you can offer to help us to deliver our shared goals on trade, including – for example – any ideas you may have such as the secondment of staff, which a number of businesses have mentioned to us?
- What further work can best help you to find and capitalise on new export opportunities and attract inward investment, led by UK Trade and Investment (UKTI)?
Norfolk Chamber will be raising the views of Norfolk businesses at a meeting in London next week, so your earliest response would be appreciated. Please send your comments to Nova Fairbank on email: [email protected] by no later than lunchtime on Tuesday 12 July 2016.
