The British Government has unilaterally said the grace period for post-Brexit supermarket agri-food movements from the rest of the UK to Northern Ireland “will continue” until October.

Certification requirements will then be introduced in phases alongside the rollout of a digital assistance scheme, the UK's Northern Ireland Secretary Brandon Lewis added.
