CLEPA’s Secretary-General, Sigrid de Vries talked to Automotive World on the significance of ‘Brexit Day’.

“The political intention to organise the future trade relationship through an FTA rather than a comprehensive and ambitious economic partnership is a significant deterioration compared to the intention articulated in the political declaration attached to the first withdrawal agreement”

“CLEPA advocates an outcome that protects as much as possible the highly-integrated automotive supply chain, prevents diversion in terms of regulation and certification, and ideally also enables the continued exchange of skilled people.”
