The first ever meeting of the new EU-UK Parliamentary Partnership Assembly will start on Thursday in Brussels.
The Assembly was set up last year after the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement came into force. It’s made up of thirty five (35) members each from the European Parliament and the UK Parliament (including the House of Lords).
Sinn Fein’s Chris MacManus, MEP for the Midlands North-West, is a member of the EU delegation. He says outstanding issues related to Brexit and the Northern Ireland Protocol must be tackled.
