Aerospace firms say it is 'vital' the UK and EU have regulatory alignment.

There is growing concern among key aerospace manufacturers about regulatory alignment and the ability to bring products to market after Brexit.

BBC News has obtained a letter from the aerospace industry body, the ADS, to the government asking for"reassurance" that"continued membership of the European Aviation Safety Agency and alignment with EU chemicals regulations" which"are vital for our sector". Repeated attempts to get clarity on this issue have not reassured the aerospace and other industries on this topic.

The political declaration said"in this context the UK will consider aligning with [European] Union rules in relevant areas". The government has acknowledged that it wants to take the"level playing field" arrangements out of the political declaration that promised alignment on environmental, social, labour and some tax measures.

A source close to the negotiations acknowledged to the BBC that among changes being negotiated to the political declaration references to EU agencies could get scrapped.
