The World Trade Organisation (WTO) Ministerial Conference took place recently in Abu Dhabi. The moratorium on electronic transmission of goods/services was renewed until 2026. Read the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) reaction to the key outcomes from the Conference. The BCC joined other business groups to discuss export support with the Labour frontbench Trade team, including Shadow Ministers, Gareth Thomas MP and Tam Dhesi MP. William Bain, Head of Trade Policy at the BCC, participated in a Chatham House roundtable on AI and Trade as part of their Trade Conference. The roundtable had an emphasis on the advantages of AI for trade facilitation as well as border and customs efficiency gains. William Bain has also spoken at a panel discussion on trade in West Sussex attended by all EU Heads of Mission to the UK and their key staff. The BCC will be holding technical discussions soon based on our TCA: 3 Years On document and our proposals for strengthening UK-EU trade. |
