The UK is committed to avoiding a hard border between Northern Ireland and Ireland, including any physical infrastructure or related checks and controls, as set out in the December Joint Report.

It is our priority to deliver a practical solution that recognises the unique social, political, and economic circumstances of Northern Ireland.
