The British Beer and Pub Association (BBPA) has joined the Domestic Advisory Group to provide sector-specific expertise to inform the UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA).
The Domestic Advisory Group consists of the UK’s leading trade bodies, associations, labour, and civil society organisations. It was established by the Government to consult with organisations and industries most affected by the operation of the UK-EU TCA.
Alongside organisations representing industries from aviation to health, the BBPA will advise on the needs of the beer and pub industry to “ensure fair and reasonable import and export policies to support a thriving sector”.
CEO of the BBPA, Emma McClarkin, said: “We are really pleased to have been invited to join the Government’s Domestic Advisory Group. Our country’s beer and pub industry is world renowned, and the EU remains our largest market for exports, and is critical to our supply chains for imports.
“We look forward to working with peer organisations across a range of industries and interests to develop policies and agreements that further boost the UK’s economy through international trade.”
The Domestic Advisory Group will meet twice a year and rotate between all four nations of the United Kingdom, with the first meeting having taken place last week.
