Reports are circulating that Britain will propose joint EU and UK status for Northern Ireland. This would meant that NI could trade freely with both the EU and the UK.
The UK is reportedly considering proposing that Northern Ireland should have joint status in order to break the Brexit negotiations deadlock.
RTÉ News reports that the British government has considered a 16km-wide trade buffer zone along the border. This would be in effect for local traders, including dairy farmers, once the UK officially exits the EU. However, an anonymous British government official told RTÉ that this is one of several ideas being discussed.
