UK business body asks for greater clarity on Brexit plan

Britain's leading business trade body has demanded greater clarity from the government on its plans in the event the United Kingdom leaves the European Union without a deal on March 29.

With fewer than 50 days until the Brexit deadline day, the British Chamber of Commerce said 20 key questions remain unresolved.

The chamber said there was ambiguity over import and export duties, border controls and customs procedures, and that British Prime Minister Theresa May risked thousands of companies suffering a potentially catastrophic shock after the country quits the EU.
