BRITISH International Freight Association (BIFA) director general Robert Keen, representing the country's forwarders, said the latest Brexit plan "looked complex and untested". "It is the most comprehensive and cogent proposal put forward by the UK Government to date and is a useful basis for negotiation with the EU," he said. The white paper recommends new protocols between the soon-to-be-separate markets for military cooperation, immigration and trade. The white paper, which many Britons are calling the most important update since the original referendum was decided in June 2016, recommends new protocols between the soon-to-be-separate markets for military cooperation, immigration and trade - a word that is mentioned more than 150 times in its 98 pages. One proposal calls for a "common rulebook," to remove the need for time-consuming checks on cross-border cargo, which appeals to the logistics sector. Objections are expected to the proposed "facilitated customs arrangement" that would have Britain to remain in the EU customs union requiring British and European tariffs for goods entering Britain.
