MHK reminded UK handles Protocol 3
The Irish border debate won't impact Manx-EU Brexit negotiations.

Mr Moorhouse wanted to know how the Island might benefit from that particular issue in Brexit talks.
Howard Quayle told him a 'good deal' of informal contact continues through the British-Irish Council, but the UK Government is negotiating on our behalf.
