LONDON - The British government said on Friday it wanted to hear from businesses and members of the public what their priorities were for a post-Brexit trade deal with Japan.
Britain’s decision to leave the European Union has raised concern that Japanese firms will shift operations elsewhere if tariff-free trade ends with the rest of the European bloc. “Launching our call for input today will allow us to begin these formal negotiations rapidly and will give people throughout the UK the opportunity to have their say on the new agreement.”
Trade between Britain and Japan was worth 29.5 billion pounds last year, the government said, with nearly 1,000 Japanese firms based in Britain employing more than 150,000 people.
