  1. doesn’t this mean they have the power to run how they see fit, and build, their own transport network?

    Powers of the Senedd[edit]

  10. The rules will be the same whichever EU port is chosen.

    DFDS have announced additional sailings from southern Ireland to France from 1st January so that traffic can bypass England.

    NI will be the place to be to export to the EU from January
     
  11. This is exactly why Wales might be seeking independence from the UK.
