The UK Government has published its second major tranche of documents advising individuals and organisations on how to plan for no deal. Anna Tobin reports
While the UK Government is still working towards a deal with the EU, it recognises that there is a possibility that the UK could exit the EU without a withdrawal agreement and it has issued its second batch of documents explaining what needs to be done to prepare for no deal.
Key amongst this is:
