with the Northern Ireland Executive, port authorities, district councils, and other
stakeholders in Northern Ireland to take this work forward, and to take all measures
possible in a timely way. We are also continuing discussions with the EU in the Joint

approach to agrifood checks.</p><p><br> <br></p>
