BREXIT AND THE WINDSOR FRAMEWORK
On 27 February 2023 the UK and EU agreed the Windsor Framework, providing a fundamentally new set of arrangements to restore the smooth flow of trade within the UK internal market replacing the Northern Ireland protocol. These arrangements were adopted at the Withdrawal Agreement Joint Committee on 24 March 2023. As part of the new arrangements agreed under the Windsor Framework, the existing UK Trader Scheme (UKTS) will be replaced, as of 30 September 2023, by a new UK Internal Market Scheme. This will enable a broader range of businesses to enjoy the benefits of the existing scheme. It will also, as of 30 September 2024, ensure goods moved into Northern Ireland under the scheme will be freed of unnecessary paperwork, checks and duties.
Further detail on the arrangements overall are set out in the Command Paper, the Windsor Framework: a new way forward.
