A recent survey of BIFA members produced the following positives:
- The majority of members said that they understood the customs entry procedures for moving goods to and from the UK and the EU.
- The majority also said that there are good levels of familiarity with Transit procedures
The main concerns that members expressed through the survey was over the Transition Period, as well as recruiting staff that may be needed to handle any additional work.
- When asked about whether or not there should be an extension to the Transition period should no trade deal be achieved, 72.14% of the Membership indicated that there should be such an extension with 62.17% favouring a two-year extension to the Transition period
BIFA will be making these views known to Government, and is encouraging its members to send individual e-mails to both their local MP and the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, the Rt Hon. Michael Gove MP.
