Cabinet Office and Defra have worked with UK Major Ports Group (UKMPG) to produce an interactive BCP map showing existing commodity designations and planned designations for 1st July.
The PHAs and BCP operators consented to the map being published by UKMPG, which you can view by clicking here. The map will continue to be updated as more information on BCPs becomes available.
As a disclaimer Government have stated: It should be noted that inclusion on this map does not infer any future guarantee that these ports will be designated as BCPs. Whilst this will enable you to start planning your routes for imports, no commercial decision or other form of reliance should be taken upon these details until designation is confirmed. Any plans made are entirely at your own risk and government accept no liability for reliance on such a map.
Defra is unable to respond to questions in respect of designation until the process is complete therefore requests for further detail are to be directed to the relevant PHA or BCP operator. Defra will update stakeholders as and when a BCP is designated and the list of designated BCPs will be updated on Gov.UK
