Question
What assurances can my right hon Friend give that, when discussing the protocol of the EU, the UK will be ambitious in how flexible we can make the system?
Answer from Brandon Lewis (Secretary of State for Northern Ireland)
Our top priority is to protect the Belfast Good Friday agreement and the gains of the peace process. The Command Paper outlines how the protocol can be implemented in a flexible way to protect interests of people and businesses in Northern Ireland, as well as the whole UK and the EU.
