My Department is reviewing how it intervenes in the various freight modes of road, rail, maritime and air, to identify how we can best support all involved in the logistics chain, including producers, retailers, importers, exporters and transport providers.  

However, the current priority is to focus on the necessary contingency options and measures resulting from Brexit.  As Brexit outcomes become clear over time, the Department will concentrate on how best to address freight movement priorities in the new post-Brexit environment.
