Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Committee: Brexit and the implications for UK business inquiry - Transcript from December 4

Scope of the inquiry

This inquiry works on a sectoral basis. The Committee will start by looking at the civil nuclear sector, including membership of Euratom. It will then look at the Automotive, Aerospace, Processed food and drink and Pharmaceuticals sectors.

The Committee aims to establish how the interests of different sectors should best be pursued both in the negotiating process and post-Brexit and attempts to examine a range of issues relating to market access, non-tariff barriers, regulation, skills, R&D, trade opportunities and transitional arrangements.
