The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, if he will make it his policy to place in the Library a copy of the report of the UK-Canada Economic and Trade Working Group.

Answered by Chris Bryant

Growing our bilateral trade is a shared priority. In line with the commitment made between our Prime Ministers in June, the UK-Canada Economic and Trade Working Group will meet this Autumn with the objective of deepening the bilateral trading relationship further and seeking to address existing market access barriers affecting bilateral UK-Canada trade. It will report back to the Prime Minister. I will keep Parliament informed of how the discussions progress.
