The port of Le Harve has a sanitary and phytosanitary, SPS, facility located about 20 km outside of the port. This is why I find it extremely difficult to understand. In the context of Brexit, we have been plunged into and are the most affected. Most of the money is not beneficial to the businesses but being spent for the benefit of the regulatory agencies. Why did Revenue not see fit to apply for a derogation and really give the taxpayer bang for its buck by using the state-of-the-art facility into the future? That is the question. Why?
