Similar facilities will be required at Rosslare port in the southeast of the country, which is a major passenger and freight route to northern France.<\/p>\n<p>Extra inspection rooms and a border control post for animals will also have to be constructed at Dublin airport.<\/p>\n<p>Legislation is currently being prepared to address the issue of medicine supply and cross-border medical services, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/GettyImages-1061420978-714x476.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Vehicles cross the border between Ireland and Northern Ireland | Paul Faith\/AFP via Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>The paper says the governments main focus is to prevent the emergence of a hard border between Northern Ireland and the Republic, though it doesnt specify how that will be prevented if Westminster rejects the U.K.-EU Withdrawal Agreement.<\/p>\n<p>The Republic of Ireland has an open land border with Northern Ireland, which is in the U.K. If the U.K. leaves the EU without a Brexit deal, the dividing line separating the two jurisdictions will become the frontier between the two.<\/p>\n<p>Coveney said the plan is an \u201cevolving document\u201d and will be subject to change as talks continue between London, Brussels and Dublin.<\/p>\n<p>The Irish Cabinet will meet on January 3 to discuss further contingency planning.<\/p>\n<h2><em>Read this next: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/senate-passes-short-term-spending-bill-to-avert-shutdown\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Senate passes short-term spending bill to avert shutdown<\/a><\/em><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ireland will need to pass 45 emergency laws ahead of Brexit Day if U.K. MPs fail to back Theresa May..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":108619,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[202],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-108618","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-finance"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
