Trade Agreements: Gulf States
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the UK-Gulf trade deal on inward investment into (a) the UK, (b) Buckinghamshire, and (c) Milton Keynes.
Answered by Chris Bryant
This deal will unlock investment in high‑growth sectors, provide the stability and certainty businesses need to plan, with provisions supporting inward investment across the UK. By establishing a clear, rules‑based framework, it will support firms to invest, grow and deepen UK–GCC economic ties.
The government will publish a full impact assessment alongside signature setting out impacts across sectors, regions and protected characteristics.
