All of the work we have done has been based on the central case scenario of a transition period being in place. It continues to be the negotiating objective of the European Union task force, Ireland, as well as of the United Kingdom, that a transitional period can be agreed. We will stand by and deliver on the commitments we made about when customs officers would be recruited and available. We outlined objectives for the end of the transition period and what would need to happen by next March. All of that will be delivered.

On the detailed question the Deputy has asked of the Minister of State, Deputy Moran, in respect of the accommodation in Rosslare port, I will ask the Minister of State to respond directly to the Deputy.
