The negotiations will result in what is known as a Common SPS (Sanitary and Phytosanitary) Area; SPS standards are the rules countries maintain to ensure food being imported and exported is safe for consumers and free of pests and diseases.
This means that the UK Government has agreed, in principle, to apply EU rules domestically in Great Britain for a range of legislation covering: the trade, production and movement of plants, animals and their products; food and feed safety; nutrition and health claims, and nutrition labelling; wider agri-food rules related to food labelling, organics, key agri-food marketing standards and compositional standards; as well as regulation of pesticides and biocides.
