The US Envoy for Northern Ireland Mick Mulvaney says he has been "reassured" by the UK that a Westminster bill which breaks international law is a "contingency plan".
Mr Mulvaney, President Trump's former chief of staff, who was appointed to his new role in May, travelled from Washington for a series of meetings on Brexit.
