Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

All-Ireland Economy: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Martin Robinson:

I absolutely take that view. Businesses will identify the opportunities where they exist. The trade routes and trade growth exist. Businesses understand this and those already selling across the Border see the benefits. We are available to support them to sell more. The cross-Border market is a very obvious first-time export market that smaller businesses should consider. Again, we are available to support those businesses that have not thought about it to take the first steps. Businesses will always find a way, the line of least resistance. I do not see the proposals having a major impact on the potential for further growth in cross-Border trade.
