Earlier this year, Peter Kenton returned to HM Revenue & Customs and in his place SITPRO has welcomed a new Customs secondee, John Nightingale. John joined Customs in 1982 and swiftly began to specialise in exports. During his career he has worked in the Entry Processing Unit, run the Export Freight Team (looking into consignments possibly subject to export licensing or subject to trade embargoes) and supported the introduction and evolution of the New/National Export System. Most recently he has been involved in early discussions concerning the Excise Movement Control System and how it might dovetail into export messaging. John's wealth of knowledge and experience will be of great benefit to SITPRO in its ongoing trade facilitation efforts and we look forward to working with him over the coming years.
