The SPS Certification Working group, which represents 30 trade bodies covering \u00a3100bn of the UK\u2019s food supply, has said new rules requiring importers to notify authorities a day before they arrive in the UK was \u201cunfeasible\u201d and could mean that some European businesses decide to stop supplying the UK.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, suppliers in the EU do not need to notify the UK government before delivering meat and dairy products, meaning deliveries can arrive in the UK within hours of being dispatched from their farms or processing plants in the EU. However, under new border rules coming into effect in April, the government requires importers to notify the UK authorities at least a day before they arrive at a border post, which businesses fear will add huge delays to deliveries of perishable goods. Experts said there were particular fears over the potential impact on products with particularly short shelf lives, such as fresh unfrozen meat and some products that contain egg.<\/p>\n<p>In a letter to Steve Barclay, the secretary of state for environment, food and rural affairs, the group wrote: \u201cGreat Britain\u2019s requirement for one working day pre-notification is unfeasible for just-in-time supply to GB of perishable short-shelf-life fresh foods\/ingredients arriving from the EU. \u201cA one-day delay to exportation can mean a 20% loss of shelf life, ultimately rendering the food unsaleable.\u201d The group also argued that these delays could make supplying the UK commercially unviable for some EU companies.<\/p>\n<p>The SPS Working Group, formed three years ago, includes a number of food businesses, from farmers to food producers and hauliers. Members include the Fresh Produce Consortium, Chilled Food Association, Dairy UK and the Road Haulage Association. It was set up in advance of the implementation of the border target operating model, which will require European importers to provide health certificates for \u201cmedium- and high-risk\u201d animal and plant products from 31 January. This will be followed by physical checks at the border at the end of April.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/politics\/2024\/jan\/30\/brexit-border-rules-could-cut-shelf-life-of-fresh-food-from-eu-by-a-fifth-say-experts\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/politics\/2024\/jan\/30\/brexit-border-rules-could-cut-shelf-life-of-fresh-food-from-eu-by-a-fifth-say-experts\">The Guardian<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vauen\/brexit-border-rules-could-cut-shelf-life-of-fresh-food-from-eu-by-a-fifth-say-experts\/\">Brexit border rules could cut shelf life of fresh food from EU by a fifth, say experts<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1316,2165,274,13150,1308,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-124985","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-border","tag-brexit","tag-eu","tag-fresh-food","tag-rules","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124985","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=124985"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124985\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=124985"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=124985"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=124985"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
