Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and EU chief Ursula von der Leyen finalised the new agreement during a summit at Windsor
DUP leader Sir Jeffrey Donaldson has said his party will "study the detail" of the new deal between the UK and European Union on Brexit's Northern Ireland Protocol.
For the past year the party has blocked Stormont power-sharing in protest against the Protocol, which angered unionists for introducing new trade barriers between Great Britain and Northern Ireland. "Since the imposition of that Protocol many, including the Government, the European Union and indeed those early cheerleaders for it in Northern Ireland have come to recognise that it could not have been made to work, had upset the delicate political balance in Northern Ireland and was not supported by the unionist community in Northern Ireland.
"We welcome the publication of the outcome of the Government's negotiations with the EU which ends a period of speculation and spin, often from those who know little about Northern Ireland.
