answer text <p>As the UK and Ireland are currently both members of the EU Customs Union, it is not possible to provide data specifically on the volume of trade that moves through the UK from Ireland en route to overseas destinations. This is because there are no customs formalities required between the two countries which would allow the Government to quantify such movement.</p><p> </p><p>There is broader information available on trade between the UK and Ireland. HMRC publishes the Overseas Trade Statistics at uktradeinfo.com, which indicate that £30bn of goods were traded between the UK and Ireland in 2016 (£16.9bn exported from the UK, £13.1bn imported).</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>As the Prime Minister made clear, the UK does not seek membership of the EU’s Single Market after we leave the EU, but rather a bold and ambitious FTA as part of a new, deep and special partnership. The deeply integrated nature of trade, both domestically between Northern Ireland and Great Britain, and across the land border between Northern Ireland and Ireland, highlights why the UK is prioritising finding a solution that protects businesses’ ability to access these markets and avoid a return to a hard border.</p><p>In our position paper on Northern Ireland and Ireland we have put forward our key principles for delivering our shared objective for a seamless and frictionless land border. We are committed to working with the EU to find a creative solution that recognises the particular economic, social and cultural context of the land border with Ireland that allows current trade and everyday movements across the border to continue as they do today.</p> more like this
