Brexit: EU says UK's unilateral move to extend NI Protocol grace period 'breaks international law'
The UK formally requested that the EU extend this grace period, which would waive new checks and required paperwork for agri-foods.
The UK announced that it would extend a grace period on health certs required for agrifoods going from GB to NI.
This caused a stir as the decision should be made jointly by the EU and UK; and the EU had been considering it anyway.
Maroš Šefčovič is to speak with David Frost tonight to raise the EU's "strong concerns" about the decision.
