Britain and the European Union are edging closer to an agreement on solving a dispute over their post-Brexit trading arrangements with Northern Ireland, but any resolution hangs in the balance as it will have to please the demands of several parties.
London says the bureaucracy - checks and paperwork for the trade of some goods - created by the Northern Ireland protocol is threatening the 1998 peace agreement that mostly ended three decades of sectarian violence in the province.
The EU has said it is open to the idea of express lanes so long as safeguards are in place - something that Britain says it can assure by sharing real-time customs data with the bloc. The protocol specifies those EU regulations and directives with which Northern Ireland must remain aligned. According to so-called dynamic alignment, this also means that any new EU acts may also be added to those that apply in Northern Ireland.
At a meeting with Sunak last week, the DUP tentatively welcomed progress in the talks but reiterated its seven tests to be able to approve any deal.
