UK and EU ‘cannot go on as we are’ with NI protocol, says Brexit minister
Brexit minister Lord Frost has said the UK and the EU "cannot go on as we are" with the current Northern Ireland Protocol arrangements, but that "now is not the time" to invoke Article 16.
Lord Frost told peers that the protocol arrangements need "significant change" and that proposals from the government will bring a "new balance" to the mechanism.
It comes as the UK government looks to overhaul post-Brexit trading arrangements between Great Britain and Northern Ireland to ensure the smooth moving of goods.
