  • Includes binding enforcement and dispute settlement mechanisms to address any unfair competition – what the EU calls “level playing field” rules
  • Ensures continued smooth transport links between the UK and EU, including safeguards on passenger rights
  • Means new paperwork and other barriers for UK businesses in Europe, including financial services, which employs more than a million people in the UK
  • Transfers 25% of EU boats’ fishing rights in British waters to the UK fleet, over a five-and-a-half year transition period
  • Reduces UK access to EU programmes in various fields, including policing and education.
