Recommendation 4
4
Require Defra to assess intentional non-compliance within the BTOM and outline corrective steps.
Recommendation
In the review proposed above, Defra should work with relevant Government departments and non-departmental delivery partners to assess the scale and nature of intentional non-compliance and outline the steps it will take to address this. These lessons should also be applied to any future UK-EU trading arrangements. (Recommendation, Paragraph 10)
