“Labour says its new agricultural deal⟳ will mean⟳ fewer checks on meat, fish⟳, fruit and vegetables imported from the EU, and an end⟳ to the current export-licensing scheme. A report⟳ on Tuesday from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs said these costs had been particularly burdensome for smaller business, warning: “These firms often lack the capacity and economies of scale to manage⟳ the administrative and compliance demands associated with NTMs (non-tariff measures). This has created a competitive disadvantage between smaller firms and larger operators with in-house capability – although all stakeholders report⟳ increased costs.””
