Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin has said the only credible means of addressing Northern Ireland’s economic needs post-Brexit was for it to become a special economic zone.
In an address to the Killarney Economic Conference, which is organised in partnership with The Irish Times, Mr Martin claimed such a designation “would threaten no one’s sovereignty”.
