I thank the Member for giving way. His point about the layers and layers of bureaucracy further supports the Road Haulage Association's claim about a 30% drop in goods moved from GB to Northern Ireland. Suppliers are looking at this and saying that it is too burdensome for them to deal with. Does the Member agree that dual market access simply does not exist, because there is not as equitable an arrangement for GB-NI as there is for those entering the single market?
