Seanad Committee on the Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union
Customs Checks and Trade Flows in and out of Irish Ports: Discussion
Mr. Joe Ryan:
I will ask my colleague, Ms Part, to respond to those questions as well. In terms of legislative requirements, there is a lot of legislation going through at the minute. There is nothing specific required from an environmental health point of view but I will defer to my colleague on that. In terms of the infrastructure, we need to acknowledge that great work has been done to put infrastructure in place at the ports. A significant volume of movements and inspections of movements are happening, as well as the associated processing of paperwork and that can only grow, particularly as the economy reopens. I will defer to my colleague to provide more details.
