Carlow Kilkenny TD John McGuinness says that any change to the current border arrangements – between the North and South of Ireland – will have an adverse effect on small business here.
This comes following Finance Minister Michael Noonan’s comments to the Oireachtas Finance Committee that a ‘hard border’ with Northern Ireland isn’t a runner.
Minister Michael Noonan said that the decision will need to be negotiated with the E.U.
Deputy McGuinness is the Chair of the Finance Committee.
