Quote:
The commission also said its offers on road and air transport would depend on the UK providing "fair and equal opportunities", adding: "A level playing field requires that, even after the end of the transition period, the United Kingdom continues to apply sufficiently high and comparable standards."
The idea of level playing field measures is to ensure businesses on one side do not have an unfair advantage over their competitors on the other.
