10 Fourth Special Report of Session 2021–22 to support the establishment of additional hubs for meat, fish and plant exports, and to investigate additional groupage models. Work is already underway, with stakeholders, to identify strategic locations for the establishment of new hubs, with operational trials that began on 17 May with an existing fish exporter in the southwest of England to consolidate export consignments under a reduced number of EHCs. We have recently supported the successful trial of an approach to groupage based on pallet level sealing of consignments into the Republic of Ireland. We intend to publish further guidance on this for exports to the EU shortly. This builds on existing published guidance for groupage movements to Northern Ireland. and fishery products, which includes funding. For example, on the 21 May we published high level guidance that sets out the potential benefits of hubs and the considerations to be made when thinking about establishing a hub. We are open to exploring the scope for additional, non-hub solutions for groupage, with stakeholders.
