Chancellor says positive change in Brexit talks
Britain will need a period of continuity after the Brexit transition ends according to Phillip Hammond
Hammond says that he knows some changes still need to be made.
“We’re very clear this has to be a temporary period, but it is true that there needs to be a period — probably following the transition period that we’ve negotiated and before we enter into our long-term partnership — just because of the time it will take to implement the systems required,” he said.
Hammond said rules for businesses should remain unchanged during that period. The earlier transition period after Britain leaves the European Union in March 2019 is due to last until the end of 2020.
