A Case Study on UK Exports in Goods Post-Brexit: Models of Mutual Recognition in EU Internal Market Law and International Trade Law
Funder: Research Centre for Law, Economics & Finance
Duration: August 2023 - July 2024

This project seeks to compare methods or models of mutual recognition (MR) and conformity assessment (CA) pre-Brexit and post-Brexit in UK trading practice, through a comparative assessment of EU law with international trade law and to situate UK practice within the range of available MR models or methods. The aim of the study, and its potential for policy impact, is to identify in what ways UK practice post-Brexit could be rationalised or streamlined based on international good practice. Even though the UK is no longer within the system of mutual recognition of EU law, and the general presumption of mutual trust inherent in it, to what extent can the EU and other MR practices be a basis for a more general, cross-sectorial approach to MR by the UK in future trading relationships? The proposed study would seek to advance the existing literature by (i) addressing the issue of MR and CA in the context of Brexit, including through empirical data, and (ii) to a greater extent seeing to identify what general principles can be abstracted from the range of existing practices to inform future UK policy options, in particular, through comparison with the ‘EU model’ and how UK trade rules, especially in UK Free Trade Agreements (FTAs), have moved away from the EU MR model since Brexit.
