A round of technical talks will take place between the UK and EU on Thursday over the Northern Ireland Protocol.
The party's Edwin Poots, Stormont's agriculture minister, said the impasse which has been createdBut on Tuesday the secretary of state said he was "very confident" that a deal could be reached between the UK and EU, adding that it would "absolutely have the support of the DUP".
Under current rules, if devolution is not restored by 28 October, Mr Heaton-Harris is obliged to set a date for a fresh Stormont election. He has rejected suggestions the government would delay the deadline, if talks on the NI Protocol have not made progress by then and saidThe UK and EU already have what might be called 'conceptual agreement' on a key aspect of the protocol.
Both sides have said that goods from Great Britain which are entering Northern Ireland and are staying there should be treated with a lighter touch than Great Britain goods which are destined to cross the Irish border.However, the two sides are far apart on what this should mean in practice. The UK thinks the system should require traders to use little more than normal commercial invoices; the EU said it needs stronger assurance processes to protect its single market.
