Concerns have been raised that a “myriad of issues” could arise at the end of the Brexit transition period, relating to the tens of thousands of people who cross the Irish border every day.

Senior officials from the Equality Commission and Human Rights Commission have said they will monitor the impact as the transition period ends on December 31.
