Business groups tell ministers to sort out bureaucratic mess caused by EU trade deal.

Northern Ireland risks becoming a “legal basket case” that will deter trade and investment if Article 16 is triggered, companies have warned.

Northern Ireland businesses will not be ready for the new Irish Sea border in January and need a further transition period, industry leaders have said.

Businesses say bloc has listened and gone ‘beyond expectations’, increasing their hopes of a deal.

An organisation representing most manufacturing businesses north of the border has said the vast majority view the Northern Ireland Protocol as an opportunity rather than an obstacle.

JUST 18 per cent of Northern Ireland manufacturers want to scrap the Irish protocol despite 77 per cent reporting a negative impact on their business since the end of the Brexit transition period.

Tearing up Northern Ireland protocol ‘will spark trade war, drive up inflation and damage UK influence’, warns senior Tory MP.

Business groups warn of potential harm to north-south trade under British bill.
