Original consultation

Summary

A consultation to inform our overall approach to our future trade relationship with the countries that make up the membership of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).

This consultation ran from
6:30pm on 20 July 2018 to 11:59pm on 26 October 2018

Consultation description

The UK is preparing for an independent trade policy to implement after EU Exit. This means the UK will have the opportunity to negotiate and enter into trade agreements with other countries.

These agreements can:

• enable increased trade and investment
• secure access for UK exporters to the key markets of today and the future
• give consumers access to a greater range of products at lower prices
• make the UK more innovative, competitive and prosperous

The Department for International Trade is preparing for possible negotiations as the UK government considers seeking accession to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) after the UK leaves the EU on 29 March 2019. The UK government is consulting with members of the public, businesses, trade experts and any other interested organisations to help inform this work.
