Inquiry scope
The Government has announced the start of the negotiations on a trade deal with India, with the first negotiating round taking place on 17 January. In due course, we plan to produce a report on the UK Government’s published Negotiating Objectives . For this report, we will be particularly reliant on written evidence. The Committee is considering all aspects of the negotiations, but is particularly interested to hear whether the Negotiating Objectives are ambitious enough; how an agreement might affect consumers and businesses; and the likely economic, social, environmental and other impacts.Reports
