The Taoiseach says Ireland can avoid the supply chain chaos being seen across the UK.
Micheál Martin is confident measures can be put in place to encourage a steady stream of HGV drivers.
The Taoiseach also says Ireland had prepared for Brexit better than the UK:
"The preparations that Ireland put in in advance of Brexit have worked. Okay. And it was done against a fairly tight timeline. Now, there are wider issues more than just Brexit afoot within the UK. I'm not so sure the same preparations have occurred in the United Kingdom. I think the migration issue within the UK. The decisions to, for example, create if you like obstacles and barriers to people coming from Europe to work in the UK is a factor across the board. We don't have that here."
