Northern Ireland Protocol: Implementation Proposals

Debate between Lord Haskel and Lord True

Thursday 19th November 2020 Lords Chamber

[Lord True (Con)]

My Lords, to say that the Government are wholly committed to the future security and prosperity of business in Northern Ireland is not “warm waffle”; it is the truth of the matter. We are providing extensive support through the trader support service. I have referred to other measures, including the £150 million that has been put into IT systems, and we are working at pace to deliver all that is necessary. I hope that agreement can be reached in the joint committee and that any uncertainties there can be resolved.

[The Deputy Speaker (Lord Haskel) (Lab)]

All the questions have now been answered.
