Worries about the logistical impact of the Windsor Framework – the revised Brexit deal for Northern Ireland – have not come to pass, a Cabinet Office minister has said.<\/p>\n
Baroness Neville-Rolfe made her comments in a letter to a Lords committee and said the framework cannot be used to justify not restoring Stormont.<\/p>\n
The Tory peer said that ministers are aware that some sought to justify not forming an executive over fears it would be \u201cdisruptive and unworkable\u201d.<\/p>\n
The Windsor Framework was formally introduced at the start of October with a new \u201cred and green lane\u201d system brought in for the movement of food products from Great Britain to Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n
As well as the lane system, the introduction of \u2018Not for EU\u2019 labels are now being attached to some food items being sold in Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n
