<p>We are aware that the French authorities are planning for the deployment of new border control posts which will be able to process products of animal origin at the ports of entry for the Channel. In addition, Gérald Darmanin, Minister of Public Action and Accounts, has announced the creation of a customs office in Calais which will help French authorities to improve their capacity to ensure fluidity and avoid unnecessary delays. However, as I stated in evidence to the Committee on Exiting the European Union, we will continue to monitor the situation in Calais and until any such border inspection post is operational, we will continue to develop our border plans to cover the full spectrum of scenarios.</p> |
