Regulatory alignment and Youth Mobility

The UKTBC covered UK-EU beneficial regulatory alignment within this session. In particular the UKTBC highlighted the benefits for the UK economy and businesses of bringing its regulatory space in line with the EU’s. Such regulatory alignment would remove some of the trading barriers which have hamstrung British growth and entrepreneurship since Brexit.

The UKTBC also looked at the road to negotiating a reciprocal youth mobility scheme between the UK and EU and highlighted the importance of such a scheme for economic, social and cultural purposes.
