In a report released by The National Audit Office (NAO) it has warned of significant border disruption when the Brexit transition period ends. The report says it is “very unlikely that all traders, industry and third parties will be ready for the end of the transition period, particularly if the EU implements its stated intention of introducing full controls at its border from 1 January 2021.” It also warned that the Government “need(s) to respond quickly” and the widespread disruption “could ensue at a time when government and businesses continue to deal with the effects of COVID-19.”
