The Official Controls (Location of Border Control Posts) (Scotland) Regulations 2026 - Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment

This is the final BRIA which considers the impact of the Official Controls (Location of Border Control Posts) (Scotland) Regulations 2026.


8. Declaration

I have read the Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment, and I am satisfied that it represents a fair and reasonable view of the expected costs, benefits and impact of the policy in business, and that these have been taken into account when making the policy decision. I am satisfied that business impact has been assessed with the support of businesses in Scotland.

I am also satisfied that officials have considered the impact on consumers as required by the Consumer Scotland Act 2020 in completion of the Consumer Duty section of this BRIA.
