## Description

In preparation for the end of the UK Transition out of the EU, the Government has committed to provide funding to help ports to build the necessary infrastructure at the border\. This takes the form of the Port Infrastructure Fund\. Our departure from the EU means that ports are required to make additional checks on the goods that are being transported into the UK\. The processes for these checks are owned by OGDs, but it is the purpose of this work to make sure that the infrastructure is in place to ensure that these checks can take place\.
