It’s just another IT project, not some pipe dream that cannot be implemented due to a lack of existing capability.
It would require an application programming interface, similar to what has already been put in place for New Zealand lamb exports. Defra claims that such a system could be up and running within ten weeks.

Well done, you've managed to read an article I've read too. what you fail to mention is the time period to design and agree the specification of the API which is potentially two years.
From the same article you also conveniently neglect to mention the other two services that are required for this to work. one being the surveillance system for automated customs checks, which does not exist and would be years away from implementation, this is a key system which would be required at the launch of any API integration.
Secondly you forget to mention the automated tax reimbursement system that to a lesser degree is also required, and guess what that doesn't exist either.
Would you like to post that article link, or shall i? Or, would you like to pipe down on a subject you have absolutely no knowledge of whatsoever ?
