On 2nd September the Cabinet Office published the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) implementation report 2023-2024.
This report covers the period from April 2023 to December 2024, and updates on the progress made since the publication of the first TCA implementation report in June 2023, which detailed the first two years of the TCA’s operation. As such, it spans a period intersected by a general election where there was a change in government.
It seeks to summarise the UK’s engagement with the EU under the TCA, highlighting key areas of progress in implementation and where the UK government continued to engage meaningfully with the EU through the TCA’s institutional frameworks, including the Partnership Council and specialised committees, ensuring that both parties navigate the challenges and opportunities that arise from our relationship with the EU.
While the reporting period runs from January 2023 to December 2024, this report also includes developments in the first quarter of 2025, ending with the first UK-EU Summit on 19 May 2025.
The government intends to publish future implementation reports every 2 years.
