No, but it is a solution and eventually we will get to that point. Will the Irish Road Haulage Association representatives state explicitly what exactly they are speaking about? On some level they are almost dealing with the island of Ireland being treated in the same way as how the North is being treated. We all get the idea of streamlining health certificates and whatever sanitary checks need to happen. I want the witnesses to be absolutely explicit on their asks. I imagine some of them could create difficulties with regard to the protections of the Single Market. We can hardly have a secondary border between Ireland and the rest of the EU or within this State.
