Recommendation (the committee's words)
The Government should seek to maximise cuts to the red tape currently strangling free trade with the EU, thereby fulfilling the largely unexploited provisions in the TCA relating to customs cooperation. In particular, it should engage with the EU on mutual recognition of the UK and EU Authorised Economic Operator schemes for customs simplification, an agreement to waive safety and security declarations for imports and exports and cooperation on roll-on, roll-off cargo traffic. (Recommendation, Paragraph 42)
