The Government is undertaking a wide range of analysis to support our EU exit negotiations and preparations, looking across the UK economy and drawing on input from numerous stakeholders. We recognise the need for businesses to prepare contingency plans, and we continue to engage with companies to provide clarity wherever we can and to understand the challenges they may face.
