Freight Transport Association Ireland is asking the government to advance and clearly communicate contingency plans for a no-deal Brexit.

Speaking on the radio Morning the FTAI General Manager Aidan Flynn said that he felt the government was unprepared for no-deal.

“A no-deal Brexit would have a seismic impact on the UK’s trading environment and in turn, the freight distribution and logistics sector on both sides of the Irish Sea.

“If the UK leaves the EU without an agreement in place it could cause major disruption to our integrated, interdependent supply chains.”
