That is the right approach - we want a deal that works for all parts of the UK, whilst recognising Northern Ireland’s unique circumstances.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>These principles also address the question of a fall-back option to avoid a hard border and disruption to businesses and supply chains both sides of the border in the unlikely event that we do not reach the agreement we want.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>In that scenario, the Government will ensure regulatory continuity in those sectors that are crucial to cross-border cooperation, businesses and the farming community. These are sectors where cross-border policies and approaches have already received cross-community support.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The Government also recalls its commitment to preserving the integrity of the UK internal market and Northern Ireland's place within it. In all circumstances, the United Kingdom will continue to ensure the same unfettered access for Northern Ireland's businesses to the whole of the United Kingdom internal market.</p> answering member constituency Wycombe answering member printed Mr Steve Baker question first answered 08/01/2018 12:39:55 answering member 4064 label Biography information for Mr Steve Baker
