answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/07/2017 answer text <p>As the Prime Minister said in her Article 50 letter we want to avoid a return to a hard border between the United Kingdom and Ireland and maintain the Common Travel Area (CTA) between us. We recognise that for the people of Northern Ireland and Ireland, the ability to move freely across the border is an essential part of daily life. There is a strong appetite on both sides of the border and in all parts of the UK to maintain the current status quo. The Government has been clear that there will be no immediate changes to our practices surrounding the CTA.</p> answering member printed Lord O'Shaughnessy question first answered 11/07/2017 15:02:39 answering member 4545 label Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy
