Call for border plan clarity

The Government has been urged to provide clarity on plans for the border as the threat of a no-deal Brexit increases. The European Commission has said it is increasingly likely that the UK will crash out without an agreement next month and warned that if this happens, the EU will immediately apply its rules and tariffs at its borders with the UK.

Fianna Fáil Brexit spokeswoman Lisa Chambers said the Government now needs to be “more transparent” about its no-deal Brexit plans for the border.
