Review of the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement

Overview

The UK’s relationship with the European Union (EU) is governed by the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA). The TCA entered into force on 1 May 2021 and there is provision in the agreement for a joint review of the implementation of the Agreement five years after its entry into force. The Committee is looking at the TCA now so that we can contribute to the discussions at the UK and EU level that may take place in the run up to such a review.

Our focus is on trade in goods and services. The Committee wants to know from this inquiry how well the TCA is working for trade and whether there is an interest in developing the EU-UK trading relationship further.
