A new deal on Brexit's Northern Ireland Protocol is expected to be announced within the next fortnight, according to reports.
The deal is expected to include a red and green lane system, meaning goods travelling from Great Britain destined only for Northern Ireland will not face physical customs checks.It will also include language suggesting the European Court of Justice will be used only as a "last resort", UK and EU sources told the newspaper.
It is expected the agreement would lead to the UK government dropping the Protocol Bill making its way though Parliament which seeks to unilaterally override the post-Brexit trading arrangements. MLAs were recalled to the Assembly in a bid to progress stalled organ donation laws, but the DUP has argued the legislation can be dealt with at Westminster.
