Evidence
The Commission conducts evidence-gathering sessions, site visits and other events to allow Commissioners to take evidence from small businesses and large, from trade experts and economists, from trade bodies and trade unions, to propose practical recommendations to the UK Government as they enter the TCA review, as well as making recommendations about existing and proposed trade deals with the rest of the world. We publish transcripts and videos of our full sessions here.
