    "Supermarkets will be given extra time to phase in new checks, ensuring food supplies from GB to Northern Ireland do not face disruption from 1 January - whether or not there is a Brexit deal.

    This will allow supermarkets to adapt their systems to deal with new Brexit controls required by the EU.

    It is part of the agreement reached between the UK and EU on how the new Irish Sea border will operate.

    The rules will apply whether or not the two sides can agree a trade deal.

    The so-called "grace period" will initially be for three months, with six months guaranteed for chilled meat products.

    The supply of medicines from GB to Northern Ireland will also avoid disruption, with the industry granted a period of 12 months to adapt to the changes under the part of the original withdrawal deal that deals with Northern Ireland - known as the NI Protocol.

    The UK and EU have also agreed a trusted trader scheme, which means all goods going from Great Britain to Northern Ireland will not face any tariffs."
