PM #Sunak must now pragmatically address solutions and support formation of government in #NorthernIreland

RT @mfmascolo: Enjoying @UNFSS1 launch report event on #VSS and #trade in #Brussels. Agree w/ @berndlange - too many standards on the market. Important to employ only VSS which are:
1. transparent
2. bring additional benefits to legislation
3. empower #Consumers

A fascinating kick-off to the deliberations in @EP_Trade & @europarl_en - we will work to improve the draft by @EU_Commission to ensure we adopt a system that is up to the task to tackle forced labour world-wide
@EtucStahl @etuc_ces and Douglas Ipio from @ILOFLNetwork underlined importance of including @ilo and trade unions in the implementation
We heard from the Belgian Customs authorities how complex implementing an import ban will be in practice, and how precise we need to be in identifying which products to target.
This morning @EP_Trade is discussing the instrument to tackle forced labour presented by @Trade_EU & @EU_Growth - a long standing @europarl_en demand
