A government document says 'communications to third parties, including many businesses' are 'not having the intended effect'.
Despite warnings of the impact of a no-deal Brexit, members of the public and businesses are not preparing such a scenario, a government document has said. A report drawn up for ministers paints a pessimistic picture of preparations for no-deal, noting that a third of the 'most critical projects' to get Britain ready for such a scenario are not 'on track'.
'There is little evidence that businesses are preparing in earnest for a no-deal scenario, and evidence indicates that readiness of small and medium-sized enterprises in particular is low,' the report notes.This apathy extends to members of the public, according to the document, which says people are 'not preparing' for the likely impacts of no-deal.
