    Brexit: impact across policy areas

    Friday, 26 August, 2016

    This Commons Library briefing paper looks at the situation in a range of policy areas and considers what impact Brexit might have. This will depend, among other things, on the Brexit negotiations, whether the UK stays in the European Economic Area and how the Government fills any policy gaps left by withdrawal.

    Friday, 29 January, 2016

    Gender based pricing is the practice of charging a different price for the same consumer goods or services on the basis of gender. Recently, the issue has come to the fore with the publication of research undertaken by the Times, which found price disparities across a wide range of gender-targeted items, with those marketed at women 37 per cent more expensive on average.

    Standardised packaging of tobacco products

    Thursday, 22 January, 2015

    This note gives an overview of the debate over standardised packaging. As such, it is not a comprehensive account of the different arguments used by those who support its use, and those who oppose it. Much more detail on these arguments is given in the Government’s summary report to its public consultation. Similarly, this note does not seek to evaluate the different views that have been expressed as to the impact that standardised packaging might have on public health, the incidence of smuggling, and the compliance costs to business.
