The EU has published its proposals for simplifying some aspects of the Northern Ireland Protocol.

The proposals were announced in broad terms at the end of June and subsequently shared with the UK government.

They include a plan for ensuring the continued supply of medicines from Great Britain to Northern Ireland.

The UK government says the plans do not go far enough.

The Northern Ireland Protocol was agreed by the UK and EU to avoid a hard border in Ireland.

It does this by keeping Northern Ireland in the EU’s single market for goods.

That has caused some difficulties in moving goods from Great Britain to Northern Ireland.

The European Commission has published two papers, one of which concerns animals and food.

It covers guide dogs, tagging of livestock, taking animals to agriculture shows in Great Britain and permitting the re-import of EU food products which have been stored in Great Britain.
