Statement from SCC Chief Executive following prorogation ruling

Following the Supreme Court’s ruling regarding the legitimacy of the Governments decision to prorogue parliament, John Dugmore, Chief Executive of Suffolk Chamber of Commerce has said:

“Whatever the legal and political ramifications of today’s Supreme Court ruling, businesses in Suffolk will be asking the question: does this reduce or increase the uncertainty surrounding the manner and timescales over which the UK leaves the European Union?  Anything, however unintentional, that exacerbates the chances of a chaotic and disorderly Brexit, or which unduly extends the uncertainty as to how companies should prepare will not be welcomed by many.”
