Text

Although today's agreement will remove barriers to the movement of seeds, plants, food products and live animals between Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the grave threat that continues to loom large is with the supply of veterinary medicines. Does the Minister accept that, while some progress has been made, there is much more to do to address the harm of the Windsor framework in its widest sense, not least in the area of customs and goods regulation? Furthermore, does he regret championing the erection of those barriers in the first place?
