Government publishes its Benefits of Brexit document

The Government’s  Benefits of Brexit report states that two years ago “a new chapter started for our country, our economy and our people.

“Whilst the Covid pandemic has necessarily occupied the work of government over much of this time, our work on seizing the opportunities of Brexit has progressed at pace.” 

The document upholds that some of these opportunities have already materialised across a number of key policy areas.  It says that it is now “setting out a clear agenda for changing how we regulate and drive our economy forward—including how we will reform our regulatory framework, rethink how some of our regulators operate and review retained EU law”.

There are sections on regulatory freedom, retaining UK law and international trade.  The report can be accessed here.
