#FerryNews - According to a UK Government minister, there will be no extra customs and security checks at Holyhead port - even in the event of a no-deal Brexit.
The Welsh port writes the Daily Post has lived with the concern that additional border checks would be imposed after Brexit - especially if the UK and EU fail to agree a trade deal.
This has led to warnings about lorry queues on the A55 if the seamless border between the UK and Ireland is disrupted - with little room at the port for additional customs checks.
But Brexit minister Chris Heaton-Harris came to the port this week to give "reassurance" to ferry giants Stena Line and Irish Ferries that no extra barriers to travel and trade will be erected on the UK side after Brexit - even if no deal is agreed.
The Daily Post has more here on the story.
