Looking through new #Brexit deal, the preamble has lost some of the paragraphs in the previous #WithdrawalAgreement from April 2019 👇
Here's the addition in the preamble to the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland in the new #Brexit #WithdrawalAgreement that refers to democratic consent from NI for application of EU law. 👇
What might be a very important deletion of wording from what was in the preamble of the April 2019 version of the #Brexit #WithdrawalAgreement in relation to North-South cooperation, avoiding a hard border, physical infrastructure, checks and controls. 👇
The latest version of preamble to the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland in the #Brexit #WithdrawalAgreement no longer contains the words "any future arrangements must be compatible with these overarching requirements".
The new #Brexit #WithdrawalAgreement has lost paragraph 4 of Article 1 from the April 2019 version. 👇
Article 2 (Subsequent Agreement) and Article 3 (Extension of the Transition Period) that were in the April 2019 version of the Ireland/Northern Ireland Protocol in #Brexit #WithdrawalAgreement have been deleted from today's version. 👇
Articles 5 (Customs, movement of goods), 6 (Protection of the UK internal market), 7 (Technical regulations, assessments, registrations, certificates, approvals and authorisations), and 8 (VAT and excise), appear to set out complex arrangements, signalling flexibility from EU.
Article 10 (Agriculture and environment) that was in the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland in the April 2019 #Brexit #WithdrawalAgreement has been deleted from today's version. 👇
Article 18 in the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland of the new #Brexit #WithdrawalAgreement is the one on democratic consent of NI for continuation of arrangements in the Protocol. The UK Gov has issued a Unilateral Declaration on Consent (here: bit.ly/2VYXdtL).
@CCBSCrossBorder will consider issuing statement on today’s #Brexit #WithdrawalAgreement pending views expressed by @HouseofCommons .
