Following high level meetings with Ministers, UKWA is leading a special Advisory Group to propose a series of measures to protect critical supply chains and logistics in order to maintain UK competitiveness in the post-Brexit world.
The scope of this group will be to recommend solutions to the government aimed at preserving direct calls by shipping lines to UK ports, protecting export and import supply chains and avoiding the real risk of the UK becoming marginalised as a result of Brexit.
According to UKWA CEO Peter Ward, the Government has recognised that logistics infrastructure and services are critical to preserving the UK’s manufacturing industry and keeping it competitive in global markets; and that it is essential for our consumer-driven economy to halt any potential ‘drift’ of warehousing and distribution away from UK to mainland Europe.

6 年Good speech of Boris Johnson today in the Commons about the vision for Britain post-Brexit . Good at the strategic level (= vision) but unfortunately no tactical plan explained (= how to deliver the Brexit people voted for). It would at least give a clear alternative to the Chequers plan and nurture the debate in the Commons and in the country with Pros and Cons.
