Brexit Opportunities Unit

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what priority policy areas the Brexit Opportunities Unit is working on in 2025.

Answer

The Brexit Opportunities Unit transitioned into the Regulation Directorate (RD) through a machinery of government change in February 2023. RD aims to improve regulation to support the Government’s mission to boost economic growth.

RD is leading the regulatory reform agenda across government in collaboration with HM Treasury. We recognise that for regulation to be effective, it must be created in partnership with business and regulators, which is why we have asked regulators to provide proposals for prioritising growth with the support of government. Our plans for the government’s overall regulatory vision will be set out in due course.
