Morris stated: “The UK port sector is a resilient and adaptable one. Most of the UK’s major ports already handle huge volumes of non-EU trade successfully. Dover faces a unique set of challenges. It is an important port but not representative of the ports sector as a whole. The sector and individual ports are working closely with the Government to prepare for a range of different outcomes. Given the strong base we work from, the major ports sector is confident of its ability to work through the changes of Brexit and continue to connect the UK with the world.”
