By the end of June, the EU and UK have to conclude whether they want an extension to the transition period or not, David Greene, NLJ consultant editor & senior partner at Edwin Coe, writes in this week’s NLJ

In the three months, since the UK left the EU, we have had to deal with a global COVID-19 pandemic. The UK did not publish the draft legal text of a future free trade agreement until 19 May, and the possibilities for agreement on services such as professional services do not look great.
