UK and EU negotiators are beginning talks on proposals for changes to the post-Brexit Northern Ireland Protocol.
Brussels has suggested a number of ways of easing checks on goods and supplies moving from Great Britain to Northern Ireland.
The UK also wants oversight of post-Brexit rules in Northern Ireland by the European Court of Justice removed, but Brussels says that's not possible.
The EU says it hopes a deal can be reached to ease tensions caused by the Northern Ireland protocol by the end of the year.
UK finance minister Rishi Sunak says London will study the proposals carefully.
INTRO: 'We will...
OUT: ...protocol has.'
