Brexit Preparedness and Related Matters: Revenue Commissioners
Mr. Gerry Harrahill:
Approved warehouse or storage facilities for customs purposes already exist throughout the country. I expect that will continue to be the case. Obviously, there will be some preponderance where business is based. We would expect the large centres of population to have facilities, but there are approved storage facilities throughout the country. One issue is whether an opportunity exists for people rather than bringing in an import in the normal way. The question is whether people could bring in something under a customs procedure and it could be delivered to one of these approved facilities. Then whatever controls might be necessary could be carried out there. Such places are countrywide.
