The UK government has announced a new trade deal with Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein that includes export tariff reductions and quotas on pork, poultry and other goods.
Included in the deal, agreed in principle, are 'cutting-edge digital provisions' that the government stated will limit unnecessary paperwork and allow goods to move seamlessly across borders with the use of electronic documents, contracts and signatures.
International Trade Secretary, Liz Truss said: "Today’s deal will be a major boost for our trade with Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein, growing an economic relationship already worth £21.6 billion, while supporting jobs and prosperity in all four nations at home."
