New rules now apply to firms involved in moving goods between Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Companies are being encouraged to familiarise themselves with these new actions and the free services that can help them manage the changes.
Firms that are required to trade under the Northern Ireland Protocol should access the free resources available to help them prepare – including by signing up to the Trader Support Service (TSS). One firm that recognised the need for support was Environmental Street Furniture, based in Newtownabbey, Co Antrim. Its managing director, Alan Lowry was one of the first to sign up for the TSS scheme. “We have been actively involved with the TSS from its inception,” says Alan.

And as Northern Ireland readers may remember from coverage of this historic global moment, the first person to benefit was 90-year-old Margaret Keenan.
