With regard to special designation, the idea of pushing the Border to the sea, to a certain extent, so there would be free movement of people, products and services on the island of Ireland, a special designation measure has been passed in the Oireachtas as an objective. Even the European Parliament has a version of special designation within its Brexit negotiation guidelines. What is the perspective of the two councils? Perhaps we will start with Louth County Council.
