DHSC Latest Brexit Guidance: Are you Trader Ready?

This week, members will have received the latest written correspondence from the DHSC's Chief Commercial Officer, Steve Oldfield, providing an update as to the Government's Brexit continuity of supply contingency plans. 

This multi-layered approach includes an ask of companies to be trader ready, specifically with respect to customs and border arrangements. As highlighted by Government officials at the ABHI Brexit Seminar yesterday, a dedicated trader readiness team is being established to support industry on this important area, and can be contacted at BeTraderReady@dhsc.gov.uk for up-to-date advice.  

To provide further detail on these latest measures, a webinar has been scheduled for 11:30am, Monday, 14th October. The session will also allow for questions. To join the webinar, register here.  

The Government has published a significant amount of information and guidance for companies, which we continue to capture on our dedicated Brexit webpage. However, these five actions to prepare for no deal highlight the immediate areas to consider.
