The Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (DAERA) is encouraging agri-food businesses and traders to take part in the final online EU Exit awareness event prior to January 1, 2021.
The third online event, which will take place on December 15, 2020 from 2:00pm – 4:00pm, will focus on imports and exports to Great Britain (GB),the EU and the rest of the world after the Brexit transition period.
Encouraging businesses to participate, a DAERA spokesperson said:
As we approach the end of the transition period on December 31, 2020, we remain very conscious of the need to continue to engage with stakeholders and provide the most up-to-date information to help businesses prepare for changes that will come into force from January 1, 2021.
“This is the third in our series of EU Exit webinars, which have each focused on different topics, and will be the final one before January 1, 2021.
“This event will focus on providing the most up-to-date information on imports and exports to GB, the EU and rest of the world post-Brexit.
Most importantly this event will also offer participants the opportunity to ask questions about the issues most relevant to their particular business.
“Registration is now open and we encourage all businesses that may be impacted by leaving the EU to join us on December 15.”
