Recommendation 2

We ask Ministers to consider whether the above recommendation, on closer working between the UK and allies in the EU and US, can be effectively delivered by requesting that the UK be invited to take part in relevant parts of the EU-US Trade and Technology Council. We further ask Ministers to set out the Government’s position on whether a new multi-lateral organisation for industrial collaboration between allied democratic countries is required and, if not, which existing multi-lateral organisation provides the opportunity for this important work to be undertaken.
