DT’s Peter Foster, in today’s online Brexit Bulletin, highlights three main areas in which a Canada-style deal goes against expert pleas.
The NHS wants government to maintain links with the EU’s pandemic early warning system.
The aviation industry wants to remain part of the EU air safety agency, EASA.
The haulage industry wants to keep to the EU’s “safety and security” declaration system, because of the massive red tape burden that would otherwise ensue. It estimates that 220 million declarations will be involved, at £15 each. (That seems to be in addition to the same number of customs declarations.)
So far, the answer has been “No”. There is little or no explanation of what replacements are proposed and how they will work.
